Up for auction is a 1930s Hartley Wood & Co. hand-blown art glass vase. Crafted in Sunderland, England, this stunning Art Deco era piece features an elegant teardrop silhouette with a thick, heavy-walled construction.

The design showcases vibrant, translucent ribbons of deep cranberry and rich amethyst swirling gracefully through a clear glass body. Hartley Wood glass is highly celebrated among collectors for its premium weight, vibrant color mixing, and masterful hand-blown execution. This piece catches the light beautifully and makes a magnificent addition to any collection of British studio or antique glass.

No chips, cracks, or fleabites. The glass has exceptional clarity and a beautiful, high-gloss surface.

Features a rough, snapped pontil mark on the base and tiny, enclosed air bubbles within the glass walls—both of which are expected and highly desirable signs of early 20th-century hand-blown craftsmanship.

Light, normal, age-appropriate shelf wear on the underside of the base.
