| Terry Crider started his glasswork in 1976. He is self taught. This studio glass artist has put out a limited amount of work over the past 32 years. He uses NO MOLDS and his only help has been his wife Donna. I have a recent email from Terry and Donna stating that he doesn't think it would be fair to the collectors to make any of the same things again. They have decided, if they do make glass again, they are not going to make anything that they have made in the past. He stopped blowing glass around 1990 and didn't start blowing again until 1999. This toothpick is in mint condition and is signed and dated on the base... Crider 1982
This Crider 1984 tall cyclinder shape King Tut pattern is hand blown cased glass - orange red swirls on a caramel base. Both the inside and the outside of the piece are iridized. It's hard to imagine the amount of work that went into this beautiful, hand made toothpick holder.
This little toothpick holder stands about 2 3/4' high at its highest point and is only 1 3/8' in diameter. It is a fantastic piece of art glass! It is in perfect condition.
I am a long time member and past President (1988) of the National Toothpick Holder Collectors Club. I guarantee the authenticity of this TP. For more info on toothpick holders as a great collectible, visit the National Toothpick Holder Collectors Society web page at (www.nthcs.org)
