DescriptionThis oblong blown vessel is made of green glass with metallic flecks. Almost half of the front of the vessel features a large abstract dark shape (composed of a layer of light brown and blue glass) with a light brown abstract shape superimposed on it. On top of and beside the shapes are pencil-thin glass cane decorations. The reverse features another large, dark abstract shape. There is a small opening at the top of the vessel decorated with a thin blue lip wrap.ProvenanceGifted to the Chrysler Museum of Art by Daniel Greenberg and Susan Steinhauser in December 2016
