Small Teardrop Vase in Amethyst Glass , Caithness, Scotland 1960s
About the Item
A small art glass bud vase by the Scottish glassmakers Caithness, hand crafted in the 1960s.
This teardrop-shaped vase, featuring an amethyst-toned body encased in a delicate layer of clear glass, is attributed to Domhnall O'Broin—an influential Irish glassmaker who was instrumental in establishing Caithness’s prominence in art glass during the 1960s. O'Broin’s designs are highly revered in the art glass world, prized for their innovative use of colour and form, and have become sought-after collectibles.
Compact yet striking, it measures 12 cm tall with a 6.5 cm diameter—perfect for a single flower stem or as a decorative object. In very good condition, with a minor fleabite on the inner lip from the glassmaking process, it’s a timeless piece that complements various interior styles, whether displayed alone or alongside other glassware.
