New Martinsville/ Viking Radiance with Prelude Etch Crimped10 Inch Glass Vase.

Two amazing American glass companies, one incredible piece.

Renamed as the Viking Glass Company in 1944, New Martinsville Glass Manufacturing Company's "Radiance" pattern (1936-1939) was paired with Viking's glorious "Prelude" etch (c. 1948-1986) of wild flowers and scrolled vines surrounding a medallion of lofty, upswept leaf branches.

The beautifully unique Radiance pattern is an eye catching, polished piece with its three mold-lined, bulbous base, partitioned by braid-like detail, a rippled waist and a flared top with an eight-point crimped rim, a perfect rest for flower stems. Hold it to the light and watch the lacy etching come to life. Such a fine testament to American glass design and etching. Gorgeous.

Origin: USA; pre-owned

Dimensions: 10"H x 6 1/2"W

Condition: Some very light age related marks to the inside ruffles; they are hard to see due to the folds and polish. Light shelf marks to the underside. 

There are no chips, cracks, stains, or wear to the etch detail. This vase is clean, clear, and beautifully polished.
