Art Deco Style Black Amethyst Glass Bud Vase

This mid-century decorative bud vase is crafted from deep black amethyst glass, appearing opaque black in standard light but revealing deep purple tones when held to a strong light source. The piece features a distinct Art Deco-inspired silhouette, characterized by a flared, hexagonal rim and sharp geometric paneling that extends down the neck. The central body contains a prominent square or diamond-shaped bulbous section, which tapers down into a decorative molded pedestal base with a scalloped or fluted design sitting atop a hexagonal foot. The vase stands approximately 8 to 10 inches tall. The finish is a high-gloss glaze typical of pressed glass from the mid-20th century, likely dating between the 1940s and 1960s. While no maker's mark is immediately visible on the exterior, the style is reminiscent of glassworks such as L.E. Smith or Tiffin. The glass appears to be in good vintage condition with no major chips or cracks visible on the main surfaces, though minor shelf wear and micro-scratches consistent with age may be present on the base. The mold lines are sharp, indicating a piece of moderate to high-quality industrial craftsmanship.
