Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
The item appraised is a molded clear glass figural vessel. The glass is textured on the exterior and smooth on the interior. I am not completely sure of the function, but I am venturing an educated guess that it could have been an ash receiver/ash tray. It could possibly be a candy dish. The style of the face suggests that it was produced in the East, although Africa is a possibility as well. I do not see anything that would suggest this item is valuable, even though it is of a shape that is not easily identifiable. This perceived rarity does not always equate value. The estimate I have assigned the item is congruent with it being sold as a piece of molded decorative glass, produced second to third quarter of the 20th century.
Kind regards,
Corey
