Additional Information: An early hand-blown studio art glass vase by American glass artist Doug Sweet, signed and dated 1978 on the polished pontil base. This compact cylindrical vessel displays exceptionally intricate marbled and feathered decoration with flowing layers of cream, amber, brown, gray, and smoky white suspended within the glass.

The organic movement and depth achieved through the layered coloration create continuously changing visual effects as the vase is viewed from different angles.
