Blue Swung Glass Floor Vase

34 inches high. A tall mid-century modern swung glass pedestal vase, likely produced in the United States. The vase is crafted from transparent turquoise blue glass, featuring a distinctive bulbous "nubby butt" base and a slender, elongated neck. The base is mold-blown with a dense hobnail or thousand-eye textured pattern consisting of small, raised circular bumps. This texture transitions into vertical ribbing that extends upward along the neck. The rim is hand-stretched using the swung glass technique, creating a tall, asymmetrical flame-like opening with a high pointed back and a lower front lip. The color is more saturated and darker at the thick base, becoming lighter and more translucent toward the stretched rim. The underside of the vase features a circular recessed foot with the hobnail pattern continuing across the surface (photo 6). There are no maker marks, signatures, or labels visible on the piece. Small seeds, or air bubbles, are present within the glass, which are common artifacts of the mid-century manufacturing process.
