Item description:

Description: A nine-piece collection of vintage floral displays, utility vases, and decorative containers. The assortment features a massive clear glass bucket-style vase with vertical panel ribbing and a scalloped rim, a retro forest-green glass vase with block-cut paneled shoulders, and a periwinkle-blue glazed ceramic vase detailed with abstract tree bark reliefs. Utility glass components include a clear carafes detailed with a molded grape cluster thumbprint base, a heavy square architectural glass block planter, a tall octagonal clear column vase, two traditional hourglass-shaped clear glass bud vases, and an ornate, antique conical brass beaker chalice decorated with comprehensive, hand-etched botanical scrolls.

Dimensions: The large scalloped clear glass vase stands approximately 9.25 inches high by 6.5 inches in diameter. The forest-green glass vase stands 8.5 inches tall. The etched brass cup measures 7.5 inches long by 3.25 inches wide across the rim. The thick glass square block measures 4.75 inches square by 3.75 inches deep.

Markings: The periwinkle-blue ceramic vase features an incised design attribution shape mark on the undercarriage. The antique brass beaker features fine, hand-chiseled artisan scroll patterning wrapping its entire conical flank. The glass block and remaining clear floral utility vessels are unbranded by their respective commercial glass foundries.

Condition: Good vintage estate condition. The entire nine-piece assortment is structurally sound and free of large hairline fractures, structural breaks, or repaired joints. Widespread superficial wear appropriate for long-term storage is present, including light surface scuffs, variable water line sediment rings inside the clear glass carafes, and fine dust accumulation throughout. The antique brass beaker displays a deep, naturally weathered dark tarnish patina, minor pinpoint pitting, and an asymmetrical rim profile from historic domestic handling.
