Next, he admits that to capture the clarity, brilliance, and shape of such a piece in photographs is challenging for an amateur. Even to describe its shape!! From one perspective this petite vase is heart-shaped, from another, teardrop or pear-shaped. And in that aspect of form it is so rare as to not be found elsewhere here at the moment. He would have you note that its artist, Per Lutken, is mentioned in the 1960 Encyclopedia Brittanica. So this is definitely a mid-century modern item! This particular vase stands 3 inches (75 mm) tall and 3 inches in diameter at its widest. Object weight is 13.9 ounces (394 grams). All the colors, streaks, clouds, and lines that may be seen in the photos are mere reflections; the glass is clear and colorless. In condition the vase is nearly perfect –no water clouding, spots, bubbles, inclusions, chips, dings, or sharp edges anywhere. The base does not even show shelf wear. Vase is without label or box, and must of course be offered here as-is. Please see all 12 photos, as they complete the description of this museum-quality art glass vase.
