Art Glass Bud Vase Cranberry

A cranberry art glass bud vase in the deep ruby-red colour that has been prized in European glassmaking since the seventeenth century, when gold oxide was first used to produce this particularly rich and luminous hue. The form is elegant and slender, suited to the display of a single flower, and the cranberry glass itself has a warm glow when backlit that is unmatched by any other colour in the glassmaker's palette.
