A man in Ottawa, Canada, has shared how he stumbled on an incredible find in a local thrift store.Casually browsing the aisles of Value Village, Andy discovered a vase priced at $7.99. He was amazed to see that it appeared identical to a piece attributed to the family of Italian glass artist Angelo Barovier.'I found the vase quite by accident. I wouldn't call myself a regular thrifter, but if I happen to be passing by a thrift store and have a few minutes, I'll stop in.
Born around 1400 in Venice, Angelo Barovier was raised in a family with a long tradition of glass working, and he became the best-known member of the family, uniting generations of knowledge as both an artist and a scientist. Original Barovier pieces can sell for huge amounts ranging from hundreds of dollars to upward of $20,000, depending on their rarity and condition.After taking the vase home, Andy decided to share it with others on Reddit's r/ThriftStoreHauls community.
