Unique, Tall Vase in Libbey’s Ellsmere Variation – SOLD |
This vase was cut and signed by Libbey in their own variation of the Ellsmere design. I have never seen this blank used before by Libbey or another company and it’s unique and stunning in its own right. Another example of this design can be seen here.
The flowing top portion of this vase has the design split into two repeating sections. The upper portion of the pattern features deep scallops surrounded by notching and a wide band of triple miter cane and tight crosshatching. This area sits above large, deep hobstars and a diamond-shaped field containing a rayed star. The lower bortion of the vase is cut with stair cutting and the base is finished with a rayed star.
The vase is in great condition and has a tiny fleabite on the rim. It’s on a clear blank and measures a very lalrge 16 1/4″ tall and 5″ wide.
