Product Details

Scott Beyers is one of the "old guard" master artists at the studio. He joined in the mid-70s and became famous for his technical mastery of surface decoration. • In the late 80s, he was at the height of his experimental phase with "heavy" textures. • This specific "Crocodile" or "Lava" texture is a hallmark of his work; it’s much more labor-intensive than their smooth pulled-feather pieces because of the controlled thermal shock required to get those deep "valleys" in the glass without shattering the whole vessel. The Masterpiece: An exceptionally large and heavy (5 lbs) statement vase from the premier Orient & Flume studio. Hand-signed by master artist Scott Beyers in 1988, this piece is a tour de force of the "Crocodile" or "Lava" style. While smaller versions of this design appear occasionally, an 11-inch example of this technical caliber is a rare find for the serious art glass collector. Measures 11” x7” • Condition: Immaculate vintage condition; no chips, cracks, or repairs
