Bubbling Glass Vase, Small

A sculptural study in arrested movement, this hand-blown art glass vessel captures the organic tension of form in flux — its bubbling surface alive with the kind of imperfection that only the breath of a craftsman can produce. At eleven inches tall and spanning twelve and a half inches wide, the silhouette reads as both expansive and intimate, a shallow oval presence that commands a console or entry table with quiet authority. From the John Richard collection, it belongs to that rare category of decorative object that functions equally as fine art, requiring no arrangement, no companion — only light and a surface worthy of it.
