This 14"‘inch tall by 6"‘inch wide hand"‘blown art glass vase by Essie Zareh of Azerbaijan reflects the expressive, organic style he is known for.

The form rises from a rounded, weighty base into a gently swelling body that narrows before flaring outward into a wide Fazzoletto"‘style ruffled rim, the lip unfolding like a petal caught in motion.

The color transitions are smooth and luminous: a deep, warm orange gathers at the top and gradually softens as it moves downward into a creamy, opaque white.

Applied ribbons of blue, green, and amber glass spiral around the body in loose, fluid arcs, their texture giving the vase a sense of internal movement.

From one angle the blue and green bands appear bold and sweeping; from another they overlap more subtly, creating layered shifts in color and depth within the glass. The ruffled rim changes character with each turn"”sometimes sharply undulated, other times softer and more wave"‘like depending on how the light catches the folds.

Viewed from above, the interior glow of the orange top adds richness, while the side views emphasize the vase's elegant curvature and the way the colored ribbons follow and accentuate the form.
