Cobalt Blue Gilt Glass Vase, Hand-Painted Enamel

Offered is an elegant late-20th-century cobalt blue decorative glass vase, featuring white floral enamel decoration with gilt accents. The vase is formed in a tall, balanced silhouette with a gently flared trumpet neck rising from a rounded baluster body—an established decorative form favored in formal interiors during the last quarter of the 20th century. The cobalt glass is richly saturated and evenly colored, providing a strong visual ground for the applied decoration. Portions of the floral enamel appear hand-painted, evidenced by subtle variation in petal edges, brush density, and spacing that would not be present in fully mechanical transfer decoration. The painting is intentionally restrained, with soft white blossoms and light green foliage arranged to read as decorative rather than illustrative. Gilt banding at the lip, shoulder, and foot provides a classical counterpoint to the painted florals. The gold is applied sparingly and evenly, consistent with late-20th-century decorative glass production intended for the upper end of the home décor market rather than studio or artisan glass. The base shows a finished pontil, supporting factory-finished decorative production. No maker’s mark or signature is present, and the piece is offered unattributed, as appropriate. ⸻ Measurements • Height: 11 3/4 inches • Mouth diameter: 3 inches • Base diameter: 2.5 inches • Widest point: 4.5 inches • Weight: 1.12 lbs ⸻ Condition Good vintage condition. • No cracks or structural damage • Enamel decoration well preserved • Minor wear to the gilt at the upper lip only, consistent with age and handling No other condition issues noted.
