Heisey made many pieces for arranging flowers, including the unusual two-piece No. 15 floral block and Duck insert. It was made in Crystal and several colors; this example is in Hawthorne (1927-1928).

Reproductions and Look-Alikes
After Heisey closed in 1957, the Imperial Glass Company and, later, HCA reissued some of the cherished animal figurines and other items made in the Heisey moulds. An updated exhibit of these reissues, along with look-alikes and misleading pieces, officially opened at the HCA convention in June 2026.
