Dive into the sun-drenched glamour of the Mediterranean with this breathtakingly matched pair of vintage hand-blown art glass globe vases. Curated exclusively for the Turtle and Crane collection, these vibrant statement pieces perfectly capture the high-end, joyful spirit of Palm Beach Regency and Hollywood Regency design.
Crafted in the iconic 1970s Maltese style of Michael Harris for Mdina Glass, these spectacular rose bowls feature a luminous inner layer of opaque white cased glass, which intensely amplifies the saturated, mottled turquoise exterior. Rising organically from the polished bases are hand-pulled ribbons of rich amber, golden ochre, and earthy tortoiseshell"”evoking a striking kinetic contrast reminiscent of waves meeting sand.
Magnificent when placed on a sunny windowsill, a tailored mantelpiece, or flanking a lacquered console table in a Dorothy Draper or Tony Duquette inspired interior. Their sculptural, spherical forms deliver a commanding punch of high-octane color without adding heavy visual weight. A true celebration of Maximalist luxury and vintage optimism.
