AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Impressive Scandinavian Mid-Century art glass pitcher, dating approximately from 1950–1970.

A particularly elegant and substantial piece, distinguished by its sculptural elongated form, gracefully applied curved handle and organically waved pouring rim. The thick glass has a refined satin-frosted surface, creating a soft, almost velvety appearance while retaining subtle translucency when illuminated.

With a weight of approximately 1.27 kg, the pitcher is remarkably heavy and solid for its dimensions, emphasizing the substantial quality of the
glasswork. Its restrained lines, organic asymmetry and minimalist appearance are characteristic of the Scandinavian modernist design language of the mid-20th century.

The maker has not been identified and no attribution is claimed. The design and execution are stylistically reminiscent of high-quality Scandinavian glass production of the period.

Preserved in excellent condition, with no chips or cracks observed. Please examine the detailed photographs, which form an integral part of the condition description.
