Product code: Discontinued Orange glassybaby Oriole shops or Navel, pre-triskelion. PLS READ NOTES
Wonderful early glassybaby in a red-orange color, either "Oriole" or "Navel." A bright, warming color to cheer up any room! Excellent condition with no scratches or chips. Two bubbles in the base, and a small birth mark from the blowing tools on the side. Not visible until you get it in the right light or run your fingers shops over it. There's a small cluster of tiny bubbles on the base that looks like sticker residue in the picture. Regarding the identification, here's my ID process on this piece: I got this one in a big lot from an early GB collector in Seattle. The previous owner had removed most of the tags, so I created a Pinterest board to compare colors, and I looked at a LOT of other known examples to compare. Tangerine is more orange; Seattle Sunset is too red. Navel or Oriole are closest, but Navel is ever so slightly more yellow. So I'm 90% certain it's Oriole, but I can't rule out the differences in tones that GB is known for, especially the early ones.
