Mid Century Hand-Blown Clear Glass Fish Vase by Blenko Style - Sculptural Studio Art Glass Vessel.
Style Attributed to Blenko Glass Company, this mid century hand-blown clear glass fish vase is a striking example of American studio glass design. Crafted with fluid artistry, the form features a rounded body with a wide open mouth, making it functional as a vase, vessel, or decorative centerpiece.The glass is entirely clear, allowing full appreciation of the sculptural detailing throughout: pronounced circular eyes, delicately ribbed pectoral fine a wide articulated tail, and a textured dorsal fin that adds visual interest and realism. The vessel rests securely on two small lower fins that double as feet, allowing it to be displayed flat on a tabletop.
The piece is unsigned, as is typical of many Blenko and Blenko style glassworks, but reflects the hallmarks of the company's mid-century output-organic shapes, hand-applied detail, and artisanal craftsmanship.This versatile object suits a range of interior styles, from modernist and coastal to eclectic and Whimsical collections.A rare and charming display piece that showcases the creativity and skill of American hand-blown glass artistry.
