    A stylish little vase from Kurata, this one measures only 17cm but is typically quite weighty.

    The glass changes from a dark amber at the base, lightens to amber, before mixing with a lovely moss green near the rim.
    Clear cased and with a nicely ground base.
    A nifty little feature of this one is a pronounced bubble of air in the base that is actually in the brown glass. Deliberate? I don't know.

    Looking at the style and make of this I think it would be around 1970s.

      Holy cow Karen!!! This is a love, love and I want it badly!!! I just converted to see how tall it is, perfect. I love the small ones, but with the looks of it, it looks like it's really tall, which for this piece would work just as well. It also looks very heavy. I'm so glad I didn't miss this one this time around! Gorgeous!
    26. shareurpassion shareurpassion, 7 years ago
      Oh and I would think for sure the bubble is intentional.
    27. racer4four racer4four, 7 years ago
      Thanks Isol. It remains one of my favourites!
    28. racer4four racer4four, 7 years ago
