A striking sculptural art glass bowl defined by its fluid organic form and luminous blue cased body. The piece transitions from a deep, saturated blue core to a softly diffused rim, creating a glowing optical effect under light. Its petal-like silhouette and gently undulating edge give it a strong decorative presence from every angle. The interplay of thickness, curvature, and color density makes it equally compelling as a standalone object or centerpiece.
Attribution & Period
Scandinavian regional example, 1960s. The form, restrained palette, and controlled cased glass technique are consistent with mid-century Scandinavian glass design, particularly studio and factory production from Sweden and Finland. No factory mark observed; attribution remains visual rather than documented.
Condition
Excellent condition overall. No chips, cracks, or structural damage observed. Base shows light surface scratching consistent with age and use. Minor internal inclusions and small bubbles present, inherent to hand-formed glass.
Authenticity & Construction
Hand-blown cased glass construction. The bowl is formed by layering colored glass within clear or lightly tinted outer layers, then shaped while hot to achieve the organic, petal-like rim. The polished base and visible internal transitions confirm traditional glassblowing methods rather than molded production. Variations in thickness and subtle inclusions support hand-crafted origin.
Placement
Ideal as a sculptural centerpiece on a low table, console, or credenza. Performs especially well in modernist, Scandinavian, and minimal interiors where light interaction and form are emphasized. Also suitable for layered display within a curated glass collection.
STANDARD ATTRIBUTION & VALUE DISCLOSURE; This piece is described to the best of current scholarly and market knowledge. Any maker or regional attribution is based on visual analysis, materials, construction techniques, and documented stylistic comparisons. As with many MCM and antique design objects, definitive attribution may not be possible without original labels or factory records. Pricing reflects condition, quality, decorative appeal, and current collector demand rather than guaranteed maker identification.
