Kaj Franck, Finnish, 1911–1989
Goblet, 1970s
Art Matara Series
Nuutajarvi, Finland
Yellow pigment, glass
Unsigned
Height: 8 in.; Diam. Cup: 4 in.; Diam.: Foot: 3.25 in.
Condition: Excellent
Note: This is an experimental and expressive work of the period. The foot and stem are particularly dense with yellow pigment. Aspects of the work, like the foot and stem are intentionally asymmetrical or irregular, suggesting that could be a kind of prototype. I recommend this more as a expressive curiosity than a fine example of art glass.It has the spirit of the 70s. A dried bloom of a pink flower is added to in one photograph for an added odd effect. No chips or cracks.
