Description
Impress your guests with shots and smokes served up in authentic mid-century art glass from Germany.
Bark glass popularity surged in the 1970’s when organic forms were the preferred décor of the truly mod. The heavily textured glass resembles wood and the colorless crystal seems to turn the wood into ice. The texture is achieved by blowing molten glass into a carved clay, sand or wood mold. These mold substances allow the artist to hand-carve the intricate décor into a soft surface.
Made by Goebel Charlottenhutte, Germany, circa 1970’s.
The heavy ashtray measures 6″ at widest, 2.25″ tall, and weighs just under 2 lbs. Set includes six matching shot glasses with heat polished rims each measuring 2″ wide and 2.5″ tall.
