Perched at an angle over its sleek, rectangular base, the Bordeaux Vase is reminiscent of a bottle of fine, Bordeaux wine in the classic, decanting position. Its slanted, 45 degree opening, delicately elegant cylinder, and contrasting, massive base create an unusual and highly desirable piece of art glass. Bordeaux is a wonderfully dramatic choice for single, long-stemmed flowers or cuttings--by modern, master glass artisan, Stephen Schlanser (USA). Schlanser is collected the world over by a select group of art aficionados--including heads of state and well known celebrities. Using molten crystal as his medium, Schlanser creates pieces that are equally well regarded both for their classic, timeless forms as well as the meticulous etchings and/or embellishments that frequently adorn them. Bordeaux also makes an interesting companion for its cousin vase, Normandy.
