HAMON Scott Depot WV Hand Blown Art Glass Hibiscus Bud Vase Carnival Glass

HAMON Scott Depot WV Hand Blown Art Glass Flower Holder 5-7/8” Hibiscus Bud Vase This Flower vase has a sticker label that say HAMON GLASS, Scott Depot, WV. It measures about 5" wide (flower diameter) and 5-7/8" long. The stem has a subtle twisted pattern detail to it. There are some bubbles in the glass which I believe is from the process of hand blowing. Nice weight to the glass. The glass is clear. It is in excellent condition.There is an opening in the center of the flower where you slip the stem of your flower down through the glass stem. The glass stem does hold a little water to keep your blossom fresh or you could use a silk flower stem. Robert L. Hamon was one of the greatest glass artists in the world. He started blowing glass in his father's glass factory at the age of 10. His life was devoted to glass. Robert's art glass has been exhibited widely, and he has won numerous awards for his outstanding blown glass creations. Glass sculptures, marbles, vases and paperweights were among his specialties. And he was equally comfortable blowing figurines to wow a group of school children, or a finely honed paperweight to satisfy the demands of an avid paperweight collector. Bob had a great eye for color, shape and design, and his glassblowing skills were second to none. He was a true glass master.
