Tall Elegant Mid-Century Glass Swung Vase

A tall, elegant mid-century vase with pure white opaque glass that accentuates any color scheme. The stretched hobnail decor was achieved by pulling or swinging the vase by hand after removing from the dip mold. The ruffled rim was formed by hand. There are no seams.

This beautiful and big vase looks stunning with or without flowers. It is attributed to Fenton Art Glass due to the hobnail decor, but we believe it was made by L.E. Smith, circa 1950s – 1960s. It is unmarked.

This lovely vase stands 17.25″ tall.

    Antique Crystal Perfume Bottle by Tiffin in Aqua Blue

    Elegant early 20th Century antique crystal perfume decanter by Tiffin Glass, USA.

    Tiffin antique crystal perfume bottle circa 1910’s-1930’s, part no. 5768. Made by hand. The foot is applied to the vessel. The finial is applied to the stopper. Glass has “straw marks” (evidence of old cooling methods) and tiny trapped air bubbles on the foot. There is one tiny air bubble inside the stopper finial.

    The stopper has some flaking on the base (bottom of the dauber), but it is light and can’t be seen, and does not affect its purpose. The stopper neck and vessel neck are ground to fit.

    The stopper is engraved with wide ovals and stippling. The body is engraved with vines and leaves. Stands 7.75″ tall. Makes an excellent gift accompanied by a nice bottle of fancy cologne.

    Mid-Century Hand Blown Cased Glass Vase And Wine Glass Set

    Retro modern blown cased glass vase and goblets with white inner casing and amethyst outer casing resulting in a creamy grape color.

    Hand blown cased glass vase is in great condition. Rim of vase has invisible chiggers. Cannot be seen, but can be felt. Unintentional trapped air bubble near base, maker’s miss, does not detract. Common with older blown glass. Tall, long stemmed wines are both in excellent, original condition. Both have tiny air bubbles on base. The bowls also have a couple small unintentional air bubbles, hard to see, won’t come out in images. Trapped air bubbles are commonly found on hand made glass from the 1950’s to 1960’s. Hand blown with inverted applied base. Rounded pontil scar on seat.

    The wine glasses measure 9″ tall. Blown waisted vase is 8″ tall. Estimated circa 1950s. Italian glass, possibly Carlo Moretti. Very popular form and style in the mid-century years.
