  Mid-Century Decor Blenko Art Glass Huge Bottle Jug Vase

  Oversize Mid-Century Decor Blenko Art Glass Jug Vase in Blenko Blue

  Mid-Century decor giant vase designed in 1965 by Blenko Art Glass, part no. 6515. Beautiful and rare Blenko blue thin necked bottle vase. Made for only 1 year. Fat ovoid bottle with thin neck and widely flared collar. Shown in Blenko’s 1965 catalog. This item was made for one year only. Scarce today.

  Weighs 4.5 lbs, measures 13.5″ tall, 9″ wide with a girth of 26″. It’s a very large bottle. It’s in excellent condition with heavy bottom-wear (bottom wear accumulates where the base of the glass meets the surface it is sitting on, and is expected on old glass). Previous owner put water inside (never a good idea, especially when the opening is so small). Luckily, there are no calcium stains. It is not water damaged. But, since it is impossible to hand-dry the inside of this bottle, you can see some drip shadows (from drip drying upside-down) if you look closely. Surprisingly, the glass is very clean inside.

  4″ wide flat collar is tilted slightly on purpose. Looks awesome with dried grasses. Blenko glass is known for its big, thick heavy glass with some air bubbles and straw marks.

  Antique Hollow Stem Heavy Cut Crystal Cocktail Set of 6 Circa 1930’s

  Set of 6 antique crystal hollow stem cocktail or wine goblets with hand-cut stem and bowl decor.

  Rare set of (6) Art Deco 1930’s to 1940’s blown glass ultra elegant stemware with hollow stems. We believe this is a Rock Sharpe decor cutting. Unsure of the blank maker, could be Libbey, Morgantown, Seneca, Tiffin, Duncan or Bryce.

  Made of superb quality fire-polished crystal. Measure 5¼” tall, holds 4 ounces. The liquid fills the stem and enhances the cut decor effects. These beauties glitter and refract light like cut diamonds. The foot is cut with ovals.

  The stem is hand-cut solidly in a honeycomb pattern. The vessels are deep etch hand-cut with floral, leaves and bordered teardrops with crosshatch.

  All in excellent condition. Unusual to find these luxurious hand-cut hollow stem goblets, especially as a set of 6.  They are approximately 90 years old.
