Art Glass Vase

This is a cylindrical glass vase with a rounded base and straight sides, measuring approximately 9.25 inches in height and 3.5 inches in diameter. The vase features a vibrant, multi-layered color scheme dominated by a deep, translucent reddish-brown hue. Swirling patterns in opaque white and touches of red and perhaps green are embedded within the glass, creating an effect that resembles smoke or abstract figures. The glass appears thick and hand-blown, suggesting artisanal craftsmanship rather than mass production. The surface is glossy and shows minimal signs of wear or damage based on the provided image, though minor surface scratches or internal imperfections inherent to the glassblowing process might be present but are not clearly visible. The base is clear glass and likely has a pontil mark from the blowing process, which is not visible but expected for hand-blown glass. Without manufacturer's marks or signatures, attributing it to a specific maker is challenging. Given the style and the information it was acquired from a private gallery over 20 years ago, it is likely from the late 20th or early 21st century, possibly reflecting the Studio Glass movement or another contemporary art glass trend. The piece exhibits good quality in terms of color saturation and the complexity of the embedded design.
