This stunning, large-scale Amber Shoulder Vase is a masterwork of hand-blown glass by renowned artist Mark Rosenbaum. Created in 2001 at his Rosetree Blown Glass Studio in New Orleans, this piece stands an impressive 17 inches tall and features a sophisticated, warm amber palette that glows with internal light.
The "Shoulder" form is a classic Rosenbaum silhouette, characterized by its wide, powerful upper body that tapers gracefully to a narrow base. The glass is finished with his signature iridescent sheen, creating a dynamic surface that shifts in color and depth as it catches the light.
Approximate Dimensions: 17" Tall x 9" Wide
Mark Rosenbaum is the creative force behind Rosetree Blown Glass Studio and a pioneer in the Louisiana art scene. After receiving his BFA from the Tyler School of Art, he made history as the first recipient of an MFA in glassblowing from Tulane University. Supported by the Louisiana Division of the Arts, Rosenbaum established the first privately owned glassblowing studio in the state. His work is defined by a "controlled spontaneity"—a dance between the artist and the molten material. Known for blending classical forms with contemporary colors and complex internal designs, his pieces are held in private and public collections across the country.
This piece remains in beautiful structural shape with a brilliant, clear finish. It shows minor, light surface scratches localized near the upper shoulder on one side, consistent with gentle previous use and typical for a display work of this age. No chips, cracks, or deep abrasions.
