Stunning Signed Roy Wilson Hand Blown Studio Art Glass Striated Vase 1985

Description: Stunning Signed Roy Wilson Hand Blown Studio Art Glass Striated Vase 1985 Presented is a gorgeous hand blown art glass vase signed by Roy Wilson, dated 1985. The vase is round bodied and done in a striated design, various shades of blue, brown, and white, with a subtle opalescence in some places. The overall effect is very naturalistic, like the sides of a canyon. The decoration is done to the interior, showing through the thick clear glass of the exterior, giving the vase a luminescent quality. Being done in such thick glass, it is quite heavy, about 3.6 pounds/1.6 kilograms. The vase came to us with its original leaflet from New Bedford Glassworks, giving some information on the artist. Roy Wilson is an Ohio native who began his glassblowing career in 1973. He worked as a freelance glassblower before accepting a position with renowned glass company Pairpoint in New Bedford, MA, and later started his own studio, the New Bedford Glassworks. The vase also came with is original handwritten receipt dated 1986, though it is unclear whether this was the $310, $120, or $28 vase on the receipt. This piece is in excellent condition. There are no chips, no cracks, no breaks, and no repairs. The underside is signed Roy Wilson and dated 11-12-85. The vase measures about 5 1/2 inches in diameter and stands about 4 1/2 inches at the rim. -jm Powered by SixBit's eCommerce Solution
