Description
A visually arresting vintage art glass vessel defined by its electric color palette and bold, squat cylindrical form. Measuring 6 inches in both height and diameter, this piece presents a perfect geometric balance.
The body of the vase is saturated in a vivid tangerine orange hue, interrupted by dramatic, sweeping horizontal bands of black and deep forest green. These dark, abstract strokes resemble calligraphy or tiger stripes, creating a dynamic contrast against the glowing background. The glass is thick and substantial, featuring a polished rim that highlights the quality of the material.
Key features:
Color: Intense, glowing orange ground with high-contrast black/green abstract banding.
Form: Perfectly proportioned 6x6 inch cylinder; wide mouth accommodates large bouquets or pillar candles.
Versatility: Heavy enough to serve as a vase, a hurricane shade for a candle, or a striking cachepot.
Texture: Smooth, glossy surface with the pattern integrated into the glass matrix.
Light: When backlit or lit from within (as a candle holder), the orange glass glows with a warm, amber intensity.
The piece is in excellent condition, retaining its original luster. It serves as an outstanding pop of color for any modernist, industrial, or eclectic interior.
