Description :

Designed by George Sakier, this mould-blown amber glass vase embodies the Machine Age elegance of American Art Deco. Produced by Fostoria Glass Company around 1930, the vase features a flared rectangular body with bold vertical facets and an asymmetrical rim, echoing the architectural rise of early skyscrapers. The amber glass deepens toward the base, creating a warm gradient that enhances its sculptural geometry.

This exact form is held in the British Museum’s decorative arts collection, recognized for its fusion of industrial design and modernist aesthetics
