It's a beauty - but better get it some wheels... Dropping that would spew enough glass to take off both arms and both legs.

Yes, definitely need some wheels for that puppy. Sweet find though. Where did you find it?

Craigslist search "antique glass" I guess they're in demand from interior designers or something though.
