About this lot

Period: 1981

Artist: Josh Simpson (American, b. 1949)

Medium: Hand blown cased and internally decorated studio art glass

Dimensions: Approx. 6 x 4 in.

Condition: Light surface and polished base wear consistent with age and display. No obvious chips, cracks, or repairs observed.

Additional Information: Signed and dated Josh Simpson studio art glass vase from 1981 featuring an elaborate internally worked floral composition.

The polished underside bears Simpson’s hand-engraved signature and the date “81,” identifying the piece as 1981.
