    This is my favourite glass vase.It grabbed my eye and my heart from the first sight.What speaks out on me most is how its modern shape combines with its Art Nouveau in style metal trim.
    Designed by Timo Sarpaneva's brother Pentti in 1960s and made by Oy Kumela Finland.The bronze band was produced separately at Turun Hopea Finland.The mounting repeats the pattern that was used by Petti in his jewelery designs and is so distinctive for his jewelery.
    The foot of the vase is made of clear glass and gradually changes into light to darker amber.The highest part is decorated by reliefs of circular and semicircular shapes different of each side.

      I think you have surpassed yourself today, Ivonne. This is both beautiful and amazing......no wonder it's a favourite!

      I have never seen one of these in the flesh Ivonne and envy you having one. Fantastic glass art these!

      Hi ,Peggy and Karen!Thanks for your quick and so positive reaction!
      I must confess none of glass pieces I own have made more impression on me.This consequently makes me think that maybe I shouldn't collect glass of a certain category but just what I like most...
    4. sklo42 sklo42, 8 years ago
      I think I may agree with you......

      Modernistic Art is something that attracts me very much but in this case I'm even enthusiastic.Thanks MALKEY for the comment.
