A large vase from Kurata spattered to give it a landscape look.
The ground is coloured from white at the base to pale blue at the neck, and it has been spattered with browns, blues and greens heavily at the base and reducing through the body. Silver metal has been freely scattered over the top, and it has then been sandblasted.
The result is a soft, almost impressionistic scene. It's very Zen.

The shape and the colours,also a technique ,gather variety of styles and tendencies in European glass and create something very Japanese.Those are a trick and the art!
Brilliant. What a mastery!
That certainly is beautiful Karen!
A beauty !
Fabulous vase.. I thought French when I first saw it...:-)
Reminded me of Kjell Engman......
What a wonderful vase Karen! What really thrills me is the soft colors and smooth, opaque finish! Like Rosie said, by using the sandblasting technique, it reminds me a little bit of Murano Scavo Glass :-)
Ivonne thanks for your insight, it's always so good!
Thanks Bijou. Kurata has always had masters working with them.
Many thanks Scott and Mankin. I love your appreciative comments.
love the colours!
Inky my knowledge of French glass would be around the zero mark so I take your word for it. Thanks mate.
I know the series you mean Peggy. They too were landscape pieces.
Kurata have a liking for sandblasted finishes Rick, and I think they have mastered the colours under it to maintain beauty. Thanks for your insightful comments.
Many thanks CC!
