Efeso Art Glass Mid-Century Modern Vase

Mouth Blown Efeso Art Glass Vintage Vase

This beautiful Efeso art glass vase was mouth blown, circa 1960’s to 1970’s. Efeso is an Italian technique providing the irregular bubbles trapped within the glass. The added pigments provide an interesting archaic effect.

Although we refer to the technique as Efeso art glass, this vase is not necessarily Italian made. The Scandinavians of the Mid-20th Century produced decor like this and refer to it as ‘bubbly’. The vase is unsigned.

The outstanding mid-century modern free-form gives this Efeso art glass vase a sense antiquity. It stands 8.25″ tall, 2″ thick, and 5″ at widest. The base pontil scar is polished with a polished seat rim encircling it. The seat rim shows bottom-wear, indicating age and expected. Hand made by a master of the craft in quality glass. In beautiful like new condition.
