A pair of mid-century modern hand-blown decorative art glass vases. The first is a tall, slender swing vase in deep amethyst glass, featuring a hand-pulled four-toed base and a tapering neck ending in a subtly flared rim. The second is a substantial art glass vase with a bulbous lower body and an elongated neck, featuring an internal cased swirl pattern in vibrant tones of orange, red, and deep blue-black, in a style attributed to Italian Murano glass production of the 1970s. Neither piece displays any visible maker’s marks, signatures, or factory labels.
