I've collected glass for over 20 years and have been fortunate enough to amass a considerable and varied collection, many of which were acquired in Europe where I lived including Venice for the odd Murano piece or two.

Any questions will be well received.

Wow!...how exquisite and exotic is this stunning free-form centerpiece from the Czech republic!.......wonderfully organic, beautifully unique, this glistening, shimmering piece created from gorgeous deep-sea-green iridescent glass is literally like an exotic sea-shell from another world!

....an amazing conversation piece and head turner for sure - such a rare unique form! ;-)

...for sale a fantastic piece of glass circa 1965/70 from the Czech Republic in lovely vintage condition...

...mid-century iridescent forms are now some of the most sought after glass creations worldwide in the wake of the incredible demand for the Art Nouveau......after the Myra forms of the 20's and 30's, the 60's and 70's revived the art of iridescence to celebrate an era that cherished mind-bending colour and vibrancy....

...Spanning 35cm,s long and 22cm's wide, here a broad shell of sea emerald green iridescence fans laterally out in a low profile through close to 20 ribs out to a prominent 12 lobed rim that curls over tightly upon itself - not only once but twice - in a gorgeous organic flourish...

....the outer skin has been elevated with painterly impasto-like ivory runs that enhance the forms "exotic" look...

...the slippery skin shifting always with that iridescent luster and richness...

...a very rare centerpiece from one of the greatest countries of mid-century glass - superb in both colour, form and condition, and a wonderfully unique piece to grace any collection!

....good luck and don't forget to view my other glass listings...
