Robert Held Favrile Pulled Feather Art Glass Pedestal Vase
This a handblown Favrile pulled feather pedestal vase by the Canadian glass artist Robert Held. This vase features an incredibly detailed surface of favrile art glass in a remarkable array of deep iridescent hues adorned with an intriguing and dynamic pulled feather pattern. The vase has a slender, elongated body that flares out at the top and rests on a circular base. Casting light in a stunning fashion when viewed at different angles, this piece catches the eye and rewards prolonged viewing with precise craft and elegant proportions. A lovely piece, this vase will style beautifully in a wide array of spaces and settings, from mid-century modernist, contemporary, minimalist, deco, nouveau, etc.! In excellent vintage condition. It is 8.5” inches tall and 3” inches wide at the base.
The "Favrile" technique, originally developed by Louis Comfort Tiffany, involves creating iridescent glass with a metallic sheen. The iridescent finish gives the glass a shimmering, rainbow-like effect, with colors shifting depending on the angle of light. Robert Held is known for his interpretations of this style, often incorporating pulled feather designs, a technique where molten glass is manipulated to create feather-like patterns, which adds a sense of movement and texture to the surface. Such vases are collected for their artistic merit and craftsmanship.
