Vintage art glass vase features cylindrical body with free flowing decor or large murrini and canes on light celadon blue background. The rim is accentuated with light purple glass band, and the colored glass body is encased in clear glass layer in sommerso technique, creating a clear glass base that visually elevates the piece by adding an illusion of floating above the surface. The vase is signed and dated in murrina on the bottom; it stands 10.75" tall. Richard Marquis (b. 1945) studied glass blowing under Marvin Lipofsky, who established a glass program at University of California at Berkeley in 1964. In 1969 Marquis receivied Fulbright grant to travel to Venice to observe glassmaking techniques; following up the advise of Dale Chihuly, who visited Murano on a Fulbright in 1968, Marquis went to Venini glassworks on Murano. As one of the first American studio glassmakers to travel to Italy to study traditional Venetian techniques, Marquis learned about murrine, a canne, and incalmo techniques that he would base his Master of Arts thesis for the University of California on, and later teach to other American studio glassblowers at schools across the country, including Penland School of Crafts, Pilchuck Glass School, Haystack Mountain School of Crafts, and the University of California, Los Angeles. Following up his experimental works with colorful murrini in 1970s, such as his famous Crazy Quilt Teapot series, Stars and Stripes Acid Capsule, and Lord's Prayer murrina, Marquis created Noble Effort...
