This large hand blown glass trumpet vase weighs 4.75 lbs and stands 16″ tall. Sitting next to a life-size glass pear in main image to demonstrate how big the vase is.
This beautiful vintage Swedish modern form was designed before Bo Borgstrom, who became the artistic director at Aseda, Sweden in 1961. Copy of original 1960 catalog page below (image 6) identifies part no. at C37400. This is the large vase on the left.
Made of thick dark amber blown glass encased in clear. The “trumpet” was heat finished and hand-crimped. Very large vase, perfect for display. Long-stemmed flowers drape over the organic style free-form rim.
Slightly oval with one side measuring 4″ wide, the other side measuring 4.5″ wide. Widest girth is on the rim with a circumference of 16″. The clear glass casing is solid at the base providing weighted stability.
Beautiful, clean brilliant glass has a couple of bubble inclusions common in vintage blown glass. Base has heavy bottom-wear, with a couple of the age marks in the form of little dents. The base wear is not visible when on display and is common on old heavy glass objects. There is an etched numerical code on base. The ‘hand-etched’ numbers are probably the previous owner’s ID numbers, appears to be a social security number. The code is etched onto the base so it could be identified as belonging to the previous owner.
Elegant and impressive vase for the upscale home.
