WHITEFRIARS
ART GLASS TEARDROP VASE
- BLUE CASED IN CLEAR
CRYSTAL, PATTERN NUMBER 9571 C.1961-72
"One
of the most beautiful and striking of the Whitefriars cased glass vases
from a series designed by Geoffrey Baxter in the 1960s. Fabulous hand made
oval tapering vase in teardrop shape number 9571 with dimpled sides.An early example
in the colour known simply as Blue
cased in clear crystal. Pattern 9571
introduced in 1961 and is illustrated in
the 1964 Whitefriars Cataloguepage 12. Once
easy to find, these Whitefriars and similar postwar art glass pieces
are become scarcer and more expensive as they disappear into worldwide
collector cabinets and distinctive decor schemes. Don't miss out on
this wonderful example." Antiques Expert
Hamilton Bear.

Marks:
none.
Condition:
No significant defects in our opinion. We rate this A1 for display and
a great example. There is a single light scratch near the neck of the
vase that does not impact on
the very good visual display qualities of the piece. Some typical light scuffing wear
to
the underside base
as usually found
on pieces of this type.
