Description from the seller

Muurla - Set of 3 vases with an icy texture and a colorful wavy edge - Muurla, Finland - 1970s–1980s AD.

Attribution: original Muurla stickers on the green and cobalt vases (sticker “Muurla Finland”). The amber vase made in the same form and technique as the cobalt vase.

2. Vase with an amber-brown wavy top, clear icy texture – height 23 cm, diameter 16 cm
3. Vase with a cobalt wavy top, clear icy texture – height 20 cm, diameter 14 cm

Color: clear glass transitioning to green, amber, and cobalt at the edge

Condition: very good, no chips or cracks, minor signs of use on the bottoms

Material and technique: hand-blown and hand-formed glass, icy surface texture, colored glass at the edge smoothly transitioning into clear. Edges freely cocked/ruffled while hot, making each piece unique in shape.

Muurla Glassworks was established in 1974 in Muurla, a town in southern Finland, halfway between Helsinki and Turku, and specialized in hand-blown glass.
