Physical DescriptionVase. Conical-shaped vase of opaque red glass. The vase was blown into an optic mold and shaped, with applied silver iridescence on its surface. The vase is wider at the bottom and rests on an applied black glass foot. A thick black glass lip ring coils around the tapered portion of the vase top. There are two abstract applied handles of black glass; each handle is attached near the base of the foot, drawn out and reattached in the shape of a small triangle, then drawn out and reattached again in a larger triangle. The top of each triangular handle terminates with an attached circle.Provenance
