Large Statement Piece Red Orange and White Italian Glass Vase

A stunning red, orange and white glass vase in heavy glass, this is most likely from the workshops of Murano, the Venetian glass makers responsible for many mid-century classics. It dates from the early 1970s and - due to its size and weight - is very much a statement piece. The vase measures approximately 28cm (11 in.) in height with a rim diameter of 6cm (2½ in.) and a similar base diameter. The interior of the vase is white glass whilst the exterior is composed of a swirling effect with red, white and orange colours (any resemblance to the planet Jupiter almost certainly deliberate!), with proportions which emphasise the upper section of the vase and the rim.

In very good condition with no chips or cracks, the vase has a few minor imperfections some of which are undoubtledly originating from the manufacturing process. A rare piece which is sure to attract attention.

Mid-Century Teak Magazine Rack by Fyne Ladye Furniture

Sometimes - and perhaps erroneously - attributed to Guy Rogers and sold by Heals Department store, this small teak magazine rack was more likely produced by Fyne Ladye Furniture of Banbury. It's a great little example of mid-century style and eminently usable. The teak structure comprises of two sub-divided compartments and the proportions and styling are very much in-keeping with Danish/modern influences.

The rack is in good used condition with some very small signs of wear and tear but generally very presentable indeed. It measures approximately 51cm (length) by 20cm (depth) by 35cm (height) (20 in. by 8 in. by 14 in.)

Multicoloured Abstract Olive Green Vase Form 8013 by Fratelli Fanciullacci

A striking little vase from the Italian makers Fratelli Fanciullacci and dating from the 1950s-60s. The vase has an almost double-gourd shape and an olive green ground, upon which abstract white lines and dots of various colours (yellow, blue, red, black, green, white) have been handpainted. The patterns are glossy and raised up from the matte ground. It's typical of Fanciullacci vases of the period in many ways, though less textured than many of their designs.

This one is in excellent condition with no chips or cracks and you'd be pressed to find even a superficial graze on it. The vase is signed in the Fanciullacci method ("ITALY") on the base along with the form number 8013. The vase measures approximately 15cm (6 in.) in height with a base diameter of 5.5cm (2¼ in.) and a diameter of 10cm (4 in.) at its widest part.
