with their beautiful vibrant green colour and changing iridescence, these vases are excellent decorative pieces for introducing colour and interest into an interior, making them the perfect decorative accents for injecting a dash of green colours, metallic warmth, and vintage elegance into a contemporary room."

Made in green lustre glass with a rich iridescent finish, the colour changes beautifully with the light, revealing shades of green, gold, bronze, pink and violet. The moulded Diamond and Rib pattern runs vertically along the bodies, enhancing their slender shape and reflecting the light across the surface.

As each vase was individually swung while the glass was hot, slight differences in height and rim shape are characteristic of their handmade production.

Excellent vintage condition.
Both vases are free from chips and cracks. The iridescent finish remains bright and colourful with only minimal age-related wear.
