AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
[EN] Item Description:Stunning and iconic vintage American art glass "Swung Vase", manufactured in the 1960s by the renowned L.E. Smith Glass Company, featuring the highly collectible 6-Petal Base design.This specific piece stands out due to its gorgeous "Bittersweet" colorway (a vibrant, shaded fiery orange) enhanced by a premium acid-etched satin finish. This matte, velvety texture was a deluxe option at the time, making it significantly scarcer and harder to find compared to the regular glossy glass versions.Each vase from this production is a one-of-a-kind masterpiece: the dramatic, fluted tulip-shaped mouth was swung and stretched by hand by the glassmaker while the glass was red-hot. A superb, highly sculptural statement piece, perfect for Mid-Century Modern interiors or specialized art glass collections.Manufacturer: L.E. Smith Glass Company (USA)Period: 1960s (Mid-Century Modern)Height: 40 cmWeight: 796 gCondition: Excellent vintage condition, glass is intact and beautifully preserved, with no chips or cracks on the delicate top petals.
