Superb pair of art glass vases from the Mid-Century Modern (MCM) era. This coordinated duo combines timeless sculptural lines with vibrant retro hues: a bright lemon yellow and an intense tomato red. The matte, velvety finish was achieved through a traditional glass acid-etching technique typical of this design period. Beyond their pop aesthetic, these two pieces surprise with their unique reaction to direct light due to their vintage mineral composition: The yellow vase, reminiscent of classic uranium Vaseline glass, reveals a translucent neon-green interior hue when illuminated by a concentrated light source like a phone torch. The red vase is formulated with traditional cadmium and selenium compounds, lighting up from within with a vibrant scarlet-orange glow under direct light. A high-contrast decorative set, ideal for elevating a Scandinavian sideboard, a fireplace mantle, or a sunny windowsill. Dimensions per vase: Width: 12 cm. Height: 27 cm. Depth: 9 cm. Condition: Good vintage condition with minor vintage wear consistent with age and history. No chips or cracks. The frosted finish retains its beautiful look. Unsigned bases, characteristic of utility glassware from this era.
