Vintage Black Cased Glass Vase: Applied Cranberry, Amber Trails – Hand Blown Art Glass

A striking vintage studio art glass vase of exceptional sculptural form, hand blown in heavy cased glass with a highly polished black body and dramatic free-flowing applied trails in cranberry, magenta and warm amber tones.

The sweeping glass trails wrap organically around the vessel, creating a beautiful sense of movement from every angle. The glossy black upper section contrasts wonderfully with the vibrant coloured glass, giving the piece a contemporary gallery aesthetic while retaining the craftsmanship associated with quality studio glass.

Its substantial weight and impressive finish suggest a well-made studio piece dating from the late 20th century. Although unsigned, the quality of workmanship is evident throughout.

This would make a superb statement piece in a modern interior, whether displayed as a standalone sculpture or used as a vase.
