Striking vintage brutalist art glass statement vase, masterfully hand-blown and featuring a rich, translucent smoky-grey core encased in a unique flattened canteen shape that perfectly blends architectural weight with mid-century edge.
What sets this vase apart is its aggressive textural contrast. One narrow edge is heavily adorned with long, stylized clear glass "thorns" or spiky spines that catch and scatter light brilliantly.
The base features an authentic ground pontil mark, confirming its hand-blown artisan creation.
