Vintage Ruby Red Glass Balloon Vase
This striking vase is crafted from rich ruby red glass, shaped in the style of a brandy balloon or snifter. Likely dating from the 1950s to 1970s, it exhibits the elegant curves and bold colour characteristic of mid-century modern design. The substantial base and graceful form make it a visually impressive piece, suitable for displaying floral arrangements or as a standalone decorative object.
