SUPERB EXAMPLE OF PETER GOSS ART GLASS

Presenting an exquisite Australian studio art glass bud vase masterfully hand crafted and signed by the renowned glass artist Peter Goss in 1984.

This organically shaped vessel has been coloured with a layer of radiant blue encased within the clear glass form. The rectangular shaped body stylishly swells to a curved shoulder which leads to a squat neck and lovely wide flared rim surrounding a narrow opening.

This piece has an appealing organic unevenness which beautifully reinforces the fact that this is a unique and individual hand crafted example.

Slight frosting to the inner neck suggests this piece was crafted as a perfume bottle. With no stopper remaining this piece makes an exceptionally attractive bud vase or display item which perfectly exhibits the masterful skills of the glass artist.

SIZE: This delightful piece stands approx 90mms tall and measures 65mms in width.

CONDITION: This piece is presented in excellent vintage condition with no chips, cracks or repairs. There is one small, fine surface scuff to one face noticeable only on close examination but mentioned for complete accuracy. The interior is not perfectly clean which we'll leave the hopefully more patient new owner to attend to. This fine example has been very well cared for and presents magnificently.

MARKS: This piece is beautifully signed and dated to the base with an engraved "Peter Goss 84" signature.

THE ARTIST: Regarded as a pioneering founder of the art glass movement in Australia, Goss was amongst the first group of artists to study at the Jam factory under Sam Herman and is credited as the first glass artists to establish a studio in Queensland. Goss is a widely exhibited and highly acclaimed artist, with pieces appearing in both private & public collections around the world.

• This exquisite piece would make a fine addition to any quality Australian Studio Art Glass or Peter Goss collection!
