Presenting a magnificent, exhibition-scale piece of American studio glass by acclaimed artist Rollin Karg. Known for his commanding, high-tonnage glass manipulation, Karg masterfully balances immense physical presence with fluid, organic grace. This substantial, ovoid-form sculptural vase is a tour de force of color and weight, making it a dramatic focal point for a high-end art glass collection, modern mantel, or designer entryway.
True to Karg’s signature style, the piece is encased in thick, crystal-clear glass, giving it incredible optical depth and a magnificent, light-catching presence when displayed.
Material: Blown & Cased Studio Art Glass
Height: 12 inches
Weight: 9.5 lbs (Massive, heavy-gauge construction)
Form: Ovoid / Freeform Sculptural Vessel
Base: Flat-ground, matte-polished oval base
Signature / Authentication
The underside of the base features Rollin Karg’s authentic, highly stylized hand-etched artist monogram and year. This distinctive, abstract "RK" script is diamond-point scribed into the matte-polished glass near the outer edge of the ground base—a definitive hallmark of his authentic studio work.
Excellent vintage condition. The body of the glass is bright, clear, and fire-polished to a high gleam with no chips, cracks, or deep scratches. The flat-ground base shows honest, age-appropriate micro-scratching and shelf wear consistent with a heavy, authentic mid-to-late 20th-century studio piece. Will ship meticulously double-boxed and fully insured.
