On offer for your consideration we have a beautiful large art glass vase.
This vase was designed and made by Arthur Douglas Nash between 1928-1931 in a technique called "Chintz" which came in several colors, this one done in gold with green highlights.
Arthur Douglas Nash was the son of Arthur J. Nash, an Englishman who worked in Stourbridge before emigrating in 1892 to the USA, where he ran Louis Comfort Tiffany's glass studios until 1919.
From 1919 A.D. Nash ran the Tiffany Furnaces until their closure in 1928, when he formed his own firm, the A. Douglas Nash Corporation, but this to closed in 1931. He was then hired by Libbey to create a new line of luxury glassware. Nash left Libbey in 1935 and made no further designs for glass.
Art glass by Arthur Douglas Nash are very rare to find with only three years of production.
