THIS LISTING

An incredible piece featuring their 'Honeycomb' pattern, in the amber/blue variation, circa 1930s/40s. The glass design features hexagonal panels, hence the name. Some of these are finished in the amber/blue colouring, whilst the majority are left clear.

This large piece measures approx 20.5cm (8") tall and 24.5cm wide.

Condition wise there are no chips, cracks or major pattern/colour loss to the coloured panels.

These large vases, often called 'witch bowls', were used for large displays of flowers or as single decorative centrepieces.
