Formed in deep forest green glass, the vase takes on a hooped silhouette in the manner of a stylized goblet or chalice. The gently flared rim rises from a cinched central section before meeting a stepped, circular foot, creating a balanced and architectural profile. The tonal variation within the glass shifts subtly from darker green at the base to a more luminous, translucent hue toward the upper bowl. The form is clean and self-assured, relying on proportion and color rather than surface ornament. Its compact scale makes it well suited to a console, shelf, or table setting, whether displayed as a standalone sculptural object or used to hold a small arrangement. Condition is very good, with no chips or cracks. Height: 16 cm (6.3 in) Diameter: 9.5 cm (3.74 in) This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
