Monumental Stephen Rolfe Powell Orange & Yellow Murrine Glass Sculpture/Vase

About the Item

Monumental Stephen Rolfe Powell Orange & Yellow Murrine Glass Sculpture/Vase Stephen Rolfe Powell (Alabama/Kentucky, 1951-2019) This monumental glass sculpture/vase by American master glass artist Stephen Rolfe Powell (1951–2019) is a breathtaking example of his innovative technique and expressive artistry. Measuring an impressive 17 inches in height and approximately 14 inches in diameter, this substantial work features a myriad of vibrant orange and yellow murrine spirals fused onto a clear body. Each small piece of murrine was meticulously arranged and heated until it softened and melded seamlessly, resulting in a dynamic, swirling mosaic that is as captivating up close as it is from afar. Powell, originally from Alabama and later based in Kentucky, earned international acclaim for his dazzling, large-scale glass forms and his mastery of color and pattern. Known for experimenting with complex layering and intricate cane work, Powell approached each piece as a painter might, using vivid hues to evoke mood and movement. Although unsigned, this work unmistakably reflects Powell’s signature approach to fusing color with dynamic energy and technical precision. With a 2.25-inch opening at the top, the piece can function as a vase or stand alone as a sculptural work of art. Perfect for collectors and/or museum-quality interiors, this striking piece will undoubtedly be a focal point wherever it is displayed and enjoyed. Overall Measurements: 17 inches high x 14 inch diameter, the opening has a 2.25 inch diameter
