Sami Tähkä Art Glass Sculpture

This exquisite piece is an art glass object, likely a decorative vase or sculptural accent, crafted from milky white opalescent glass. Its primary physical characteristic is a rounded or spherical form, visible from the base shown. Adorning the exterior are distinct, organically shaped applied glass elements in contrasting colors: a prominent, vibrant red circular or irregular patch and a sweeping, curvilinear black form that appears to extend gracefully across the surface. The black element suggests an abstract or stylized natural form, possibly a branch or stem. The surface of the glass is smooth and glossy, indicative of quality craftsmanship. The most significant manufacturing detail is the etched signature on the bottom of the piece, which clearly reads "Sami Tähkä", identifying the renowned Finnish glass artist. This signature confirms it as an original art piece by Tähkä. The visible condition issues are minimal, primarily consisting of superficial dust and minor debris on the base, but no obvious chips, cracks, or significant wear are discernible from the image. The style is distinctly modern or contemporary art glass, characteristic of the late 20th or early 21st century. The integration of color and form, along with the artist's signature, highlights this piece's quality and artistic value.
