Featured Hand Blown Art Glass Tumbler With Cane Work

Hand blown studio glass tumbler decorated with colored lip wrap, applied sinuous decoration and twisty cane work. Signed 'glass ?' on unfinished pontil. Approx. height 3.25 inches. I was hoping it was by James Harmon before I figured out that the first word was glass! I tried Glass Hounds, Glass House but am at a loss. Thanks for looking!

 

Interesting, its more like something I'd make than I'd collect, however.

 

I have a friend who was a apprentice under a master glass blower for a few years. He now does fine porcelain restoration work. Anyway he
use to do/make these ‘weird’ interesting and once- off items to practice and test skill. This reminds me of that.

 

Maybe end of day piece with left over canes, as Boland said for practice.

 

It sort of looks like it says Herman to me. I don't think this is right but there is a Michael Hermann that makes similar types of glasses. I went down the rabbit hole of looking at these types.....they are like a party in a glass!

Anyway, I found quite a few by using murrini glass tumbler as a search term.

This is one by Hermann and Lunn, apparently partners.
