Description from the seller
Pair of 1970s Vases – Smoky Black Submerged Glass with Droplet Bubble
Elegant pair of vases in artistic glass
• Shape: Both vases feature an elegant ovoid (or barrel) shape, rounded and clean, which fits perfectly in both modern and vintage environments.
• Color and Technique: Made with the submerged glass technique. The central core is a deep smoky black (dark smoke gray), which appears almost onyx in bright light but reveals fascinating dark gray shades and a slight transparency when backlit.
• Base Detail: The base consists of a thick layer of colorless transparent crystal. The distinctive feature of this Nason series is the presence of a single "controlled" (or submerged) air bubble inside the base, perfectly shaped like a teardrop or inverted tear. This element catches the light, creating a bright focal point at the base of the dark glass.
Dimensions:
• Large Vase:
o Height: 13 cm
o Width: 9.5 cm
o Depth: 6.5 cm
• Small Vase:
o Height: 9.5 cm
o Width: 8 cm
o Depth: 6 cm
Conditions of the Item:
The vases are in excellent vintage condition. They show no chips, cracks, or restorations.
• As with all vintage glass objects, there may be slight and normal signs of wear on the support base due to long-term placement
• Please carefully view the photographic gallery, which is an integral part of the description
Shipping and Packaging
