Date Listed: Aug-31-08 Welcome fine art glass enthusiasts!
This is one of the most attractive and richest looking art vases I have ever owned … if you like decorative glass, it’s worth taking the time to look at.
I believe any collector will love this fabulous vase of absolutely wonderful color, form and design.
There are two translucent colors of turquoise and clear.
QUALITY CRAFTSMANSHIP Like a stand-up Victorian collar around one’s high-fashion neck, the vase has a very distinctive turquoise green ruffled edge. A special hand tool was used to manipulate nearly-molten blown glass rim and craft this ribbon-like decoration. Free-form finish is all one piece (not an attached trim) as it flows into a most unusually shaped clear vase design. A network of fine cracks (crackling) was produced by quickly cooling glass that has been fired to a carefully controlled temperature. Turquoise green pedestal base appears attached (applied) by the glassworker’s hand. The base is such an integral part of the piece that it adds, and gives this vase, a very elegant overall appearance. Outstanding vivid color.

Common ‘pontil’ mark, left where glass was broken away from the blowing pipe when it was made, is noted on circular base. Round scar remained which, on this fine quality piece, is ground and polished smooth. Noted deliberately placed teardrop inclusions. Formed by air bubbles, they were used to highlight.
Vase is absolutely MINT and shows no problems, excuses or damage anywhere.
