Pair of Laugharne Vases with Silver Overlay, Hand-Blown Ruby Mottled Glass

A pair of British studio glass vases by Laugharne Glass, distinguished by their rich colour palette and sculptural surface decoration. Each vase is hand-blown in mottled ruby (cranberry) glass, with subtle variations in tone that give depth and movement to the material. The forms are enriched with an applied silver overlay, worked in raised floral relief and delicately engraved, wrapping organically around the body of the glass. The contrast between the luminous cranberry glass and the cool silver overlay creates a quietly dramatic effect, particularly when the light passes through the glass. The silver shows a soft, natural patina consistent with age. Thoughtfully made studio objects, these vases balance decorative presence with architectural restraint — well suited to both contemporary and classic interiors. Sold as a matching pair. Details.
