Standing approximately 6 inches tall, the sculptural swan is hand-blown with graceful flowing lines in rich cranberry, rose and burgundy, accented by delicate ribbons of cream and subtle flashes of blue, green, gold and violet. The softly iridescent surface changes beautifully with the light, giving the piece exceptional depth and movement.

The elongated curved neck, clear glass beak and sweeping tail create an elegant silhouette, while the finely worked feather pattern showcases the craftsmanship associated with Abelman’s studio glass.

The piece retains its original hand-etched signature and identifying markings on the underside, photographed in detail.

A striking example of late-20th-century American studio glass, equally beautiful displayed alone or incorporated into a collection of art glass and sculptural objects. See less
