Degrazia Gods Eye Series Painted Tumbler Glass Appraisal

DeGrazia 'God's Eye' Series Painted Tumbler Glass

This is a vintage tall highball or iced tea tumbler featuring the distinctive artwork of Ted DeGrazia. The glass is cylindrical with a weighted bottom, constructed of clear machine-made glass. The primary decoration is a vibrant, wrap-around screen-printed graphic in a painterly style, mimicking brushstrokes on a yellow background. It depicts a stylized indigenous child with long dark hair, wearing a colorful poncho in red and blue hues, holding traditional Ojo de Dios (God’s Eye) yarn weavings. The artist's signature 'DeGrazia' is clearly visible in the lower right of the graphic in black script. The design reflects the Mid-Century Modern Southwestern aesthetic popular in the 1960s and 70s. The screen print shows minor signs of age-related wear, with small flecks of paint loss visible upon close inspection, particularly near the edges of the yellow field. The glass itself appears to be in good structural condition without chips or cracks, though light shelf wear is present on the base. The quality of the transfer is high, maintaining the saturated colors and the expressionistic 'sketch' quality that is a hallmark of DeGrazia's gallery-reproduced merchandise.
