The body is cased in a deep aubergine-to-midnight iridescence that shifts through violet, blue, and bronze as the piece turns — a dense, velvety surface rather than a bright mirror finish. Over it runs a decoration of pulled and trailed leaves in pale butter-gold, each one hooked at the tip and tracing a slender vine down the body. The leaves stand slightly proud of the surface, so light catches them separately from the ground color, and the contrast between the cool dark field and the warm gold foliage is what carries the piece across a room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe polished pontil is recessed into a broad base, with the artist's engraved signature and date running alongside it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eIn excellent condition: no chips, cracks, or scratches, and no loss to the iridescent surface.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lotton","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52981244166455,"sku":null,"price":1000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0886\/7273\/1447\/files\/050DA074-0743-4D20-9191-210E597E642E.jpg?v=1789248770","url":"https:\/\/www.ateliergilt.com\/products\/charles-lotton-iridescent-art-glass-vase-pulled-leaf-and-vine","provider":"Atelier Gilt","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
