Eames Era Cased Art Glass Circus Tent Box

Eames Era Cased Art Glass Circus Tent Box

Wonderful Eames era circus tent jar with fire orange lid. In excellent condition. Circa 1950’s-1960’s.

Rare item in this color and form. These were made by the Italians, Americans, Scandinavians, (among others) during the mid-century. This is not marked but we believe it is Italian because of the cased glass ball in the circus tent finial. Very fine work, beautiful glass.

Hand blown with finished pontil. The vessel is made of white glass and the tent lid is made of white and orange cased glass. Note the encased ball in the finial.

Measures 5″ tall and 5″ wide, weighs 1.1 lbs. Would look lovely on the vanity with cotton balls or as a candy dish.
