IMHO, this is absolutely Blenko, catalog #5815-L. The color is Tangerine. Wayne Husted was the designer for this piece.
Blenko did stop sandblasting pieces mid 1961, however, it is possible that this piece was made in 1961 but not sold until 1962. It may not have been shipped out immediately, and/or it may have sat at the retailer unsold for a period of time, or the memory of the person who said it as bought in 1962 may be faulty.
You can see your piece in catalogs over several years. Here is the 1961 catalog, it is on approx page 17

An infrequent customer in my shop, knew EXACTLY what this was...She balked at the price, wishing me "luck" and telling me who, in NYC would give me "something" for it.....Sheesh, I'm 00 mi away from NYC....What is the problem with people these days?
