Mid Century Scandinavian Cut Glass Pedestal Vase

A hand-blown, -cut, and -engraved crystal vase featuring Scandinavian design elements. The vase depicts a nude figure basking in the golden sunlight. The vase is characterized by its heavy, thick walls and a rounded mouth. It features a central square of gold-colored glass with an etched design of a sunbathing nude. Surrounding this central motif are hand-etched clear lines that frame the artwork. The vase is supported by a thick, round gold-colored base with a polished pontil visible underneath. Although the vase is unmarked, its design closely resembles those produced by Kosta Bergh and Orrefors. However, the exact craftsman remains uncertain. Additionally, the vase exhibits elements of Art Deco, Art Moderne, and Mid-century design. It possibly dates back to either the late 1930s or the 1950s.
