Mid-Century Ruby Red Blown Glass Vase with Spiral Wrap Trail

This is a hand-blown art glass vase featuring a deep ruby red or cranberry coloration. The vessel possesses a pear-shaped or ovoid body that tapers to a flared, polished rim. A distinctive decorative element consists of a clear or lightly tinted glass 'trail' or filament that has been spirally wrapped around the exterior body while the glass was still molten, creating a three-dimensional textural effect. The glass contains numerous controlled internal bubbles, often referred to as 'seed bubbles,' which are characteristic of hand-worked glass from the mid-20th century. The piece appears to have a thick, solid clear glass base, providing stability and indicating a 'hand-poured' or 'bit' gathered bottom. No maker's marks or signatures are immediately visible in the provided image, though the style is reminiscent of mid-century Italian Murano or American West Virginia glass companies like Blenko or Kanawha. The condition shows no glaring cracks or major chips, although there is a slight transparency variation near the top rim which may indicate minor surface wear. The craftsmanship is of good quality, shown through the fluid application of the spiral wrap and the vibrant, consistent saturation of the red pigment.
