When I first saw the photo of this vase I fell in love.
When my partner first saw the photo of this vase he said it looked like someone had vomited glass.
Thing is, I sort of know where he's coming from.
I still love it.
I'm not going to go into technique here, I'll just let you look at it.
All comments welcome, whether you like it or not.
I think it's going to be a love it : hate it piece.

Looks like melted ribbon candy or taffy. Hideously delicious ! :)
Lol Mike! Well said.
Well....I think it's colorfully spectacular! Yes, I agree with Mike in that it looks like melted taffy ribbons.
Gracefully left comment Ken - I appreciate your feedback! (I mean that, I fully expect it not to appeal to everyone)
Thanks Bonnie. Colourfully spectacular hey!
GLORIOUS, GORGEOUS, GOO !!!
Sensory overload :)
LOL...........agree with Mike it looks like **melted ribbon candy or taffy**
.......and v~e~r~y different looking.
I just fell over. So cool. Love everything about it. Looks kinda like the old candles from the 70's.
Mikel said it: Looks like candy!!! I really like it!
It's glorious, like a glass Jackson Pollock! Better! :)
Yes like those vintage 1970's carved Candles:

stunning Karen!!
Thanks Kevin. Differently delightful and very Japanese.
Indeed Peggy. Thank you;0
Dean - the candles! You are so right - thanks for loving it.
Freiheit - candy, taffy - same technique I guess! Thanks for the love and comment.
Katherine I hereby call this my Poroka vase...thanks for the idea!
Beautiful ugly Valentino, aka fugly, jolie laide, or just special.
Thanks for the lurve. I don't have a fireplace but this vase may require me change houses so I do!
Rose -thanks for the candle link; perfect!
Sean - thanks for the love and comment!
Your very welcome Karen!!
Oh my,I have only left for 4 days and so much wonderful glass to catch up !
Lisa your comment made ME smile! Thanks. Unique certainly, and it is still amazing me.
Ahhh - the Japanese! Like no other.
Thank you Ivonne - lovely of you to comment.
Oh my goodness racer.......I have never seen anything like this before!!!!!! but it could grow on me I think!
Great vase Karen!
Tassie Devil I can hear your amazement lol.
After collecting Japanese glass for a while I am inured to the weird and almost expect it, and also expect not everyone likes things as I have learnt to do. It takes training! You might get there some day!...many thanks.
Great to hear from you Vlad...many thanks.
You're so funny! I love all the colors and can't imagine the work that went into it.
Thanks OGF - glad you appreciate the work in this. There is lots despite the result being messy and out there- that's so Japanese. Either like that, or all anal and perfect.
LOL!!! Love this post. My first reaction was to leave the word "Vomit" and nothing else! But I couldn't do it. I had to throw the laughing in here too! Yep, I'm with him...VOMIT!
hahahaha
Dear Ms Sue , I don't care if you want to share the passion or vomit at my glass. I do care when you laugh maniacally. You might choke and then I won't hear from you again. Regards, Ms Headthingy
hahaha!!! I can't help it...
A very special vase with a bounty of color, I can see why you love it - the mauve ribboning is gorgeous
LOL Eileen, as you can see by comments you would not be alone with your feelings regarding this one. Absolutely we should all be honest and I welcome opinions.
Thanks for going through my old posts, it's fun for me to revisit!
Thanks Jennie! I still love it because it is so Japanese in it's creation, particularly relevant to the 60s when it was made.
I love the ribbon too, it moves it from nice to extraordinary!
