GALWAY HERITAGE CENTRE SPILL VASE
AKA "CLADDAGH/SAILBOAT VASE"

THIS VASE WAS MADE ONLY AT THE GALWAY IRISH CRYSTAL HERITAGE CENTRE IN GALWAY, IRELAND.  THIS VASE WAS FIRST PRODUCED AROUND JUNE 17, 1993, WHEN THE BELLEEK GROUP ACQUIRED GALWAY IRISH CRYSTAL.  THIS VASE CONTINUES TO BE PRODUCED TODAY.   THIS VASE COMES WITH THREE KNOWN SEPARATE SPECIAL MARKS THAT ARE ON MY BELLEEK COMPARISON MARKS PAGE.  KNOWN SPECIAL MARKS EXISTED DURING THE 8TH, 9TH, AND 11TH PERIODS.  I AM UNSURE IF THIS VASE WAS PRODUCED DURING THE 10TH MERIOD (MILLENIUM 2000 ONLY), I AM YET TO SEE ONE.  RUMOR HAS IT THAT IT MAY NOT HAVE BEEN PRODUCED BECAUSE OF LEFTOVER VASES FROM THE 9TH PERIOD.
