Hand Blown Diamond Rib Optic Snifter Vase
Beautiful hand made brandy snifter glass vase from the 1940s-1950s. Stunning thick and tight optic effect. The optics were not blown out thin and smooth as usually seen, the pillows are mounded and the borders are raised on the exterior. Produces fabulous optic eye-candy. Made with heavier and thicker glass than most goblet vases. Hand blown with applied stem and applied domed base. Seat has expected heavy bottom-wear from age. Hand-finished ripples adorn the rim. Smooth pontil mark. Bowl was blown from mold and stem and foot were hand formed. The color is a lovely peacock blue. Made in Italy.
Looks fantastic with flowers or plants. Makes a beautiful candle holder (never use candles with metal) Looks awesome empty!
This beauty measures 8 3/8″ tall, 6″ at widest, widest girth is 16″. It weighs 2 lbs.
