This is for one

Constance Vase - 29cm tall

presented in a gorgeous Ophelia box of crisp cream with a sage green pure silk insert, braided in cerise as shown


A box and gift you'll want to keep.


The delicate dew drop green of the glass is distinctive and is derived from the mouth blown glass and the Bohemian raw materials used to make Ophelia ConstanceVase an entirely original work of art.

This limited edition of stunning mouth blown glass from the wooded hillsides of Bohemia is created by one workshop of artisans using a single furnace.

Each piece is the work of three master craftsmen who coax exquisite forms from the fire using nothing more than their breath and a few simple tools.

These highly skilled artisans work simultaneously on the same piece of glass with perfect fluidity.

Every piece is signed with the craftsman’s mark and no two pieces are absolutely identical, thus ensuring a unique collection. 

Delicate spiral threads and pearl shapes echo back to the 13th century, fusing antique shapes and decoration with a contemporary twist.

This item, like all those I sell;

 1. all are original products as sold and created by Artfoum Ltd.   

 2. remained boxed since purchased from manufacturer  

 3. I been a retailer of products to individuals, universities and collectors since 1996, creating my company Solari UK in 1997 –hence the ebay id solariuk1997-  

and have full validation of origins

 Those facts alone make it rare and priced as shown

 I purchased stocks many years ago at huge expense, I've kept it in storage ever since, knowing that the price would only ever increase.

 I am in no hurry to sell in fact, I'm approached by shops and outlets to sell ALL of my stock in one go which I could have done many times over but I always resist, preferring to sell to genuine individuals who love the decks, who will and do appreciate them.

I'm in no hurry and can wait to align with such buyers as and when they appear.
