This is an offering for a gorgeous 5-5/8'' high vase made actually MADE with ash from the eruption. Now, I have seen quite a few wares through the years claiming to be made with St. Helens ash. This is FULL-ON ash. Being the eruption of St. Helens not only that fateful day, but subsequent smaller eruptions sent ash our direction, and greatly altered my high school graduation, memories does this bring back! Marked MAY 18 1980 MT. ST. HELENS ASH. WNS. Not a hint of use and has no nicks, chips, cracks or repairs. Shipping for this fine addition to your collection or decor is $10.95.
