Cobalt Blue Glass Vase, Large

A commanding presence in deep cobalt, this large art glass vase from John Richard rises nearly twenty-two inches with a sculptural authority that asks little of the room around it. Hand blown by practiced hands, the glass carries the inherent warmth and subtle variation that only the breath of a craftsman can impart — no two pieces ever quite identical. Its generous proportions make it equally at home anchoring a console, commanding a mantel, or standing alone as the singular object a well-considered interior deserves.
