Crafted from a richly saturated emerald green glass, the vase features a striking, sculptural design divided into three distinct sections: a heavy, optic-blown ribbed base that beautifully catches the light, a swelling smooth body, and a dramatic wide-flared collar rim. This piece perfectly embodies Vallien's early experimentation with geometric and textured forms, making it a classic example of Scandinavian mid-century modernism and a highly collectible object for connoisseurs of Swedish studio glas. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
