    Impressive Contemporary Art "Apothecary" Bathroom Vanity Accessories
    Artist Structures are two bottles no stoppers (vases) and two lidded urns (4 Piece)
    The artist remains "Anonymous" but we did learn they are American and was made in USA.

    We did extensive research on this art collection and could not find the origin (where and who) of items with 100% accuracy but the research came up with all the facts below. MemoryLaneVintiques purchased this listing at an Estate Sale in Fort Worth (circa 2008). During our online research, we discovered ONE exact art piece match. It was located in Kentucky and we spoke to the owner who acquired it as part of a storage auction from a wealthy Kentucky businessman who had passed away. Based on the date of our purchase and the information from Kentucky we verified that the items are vintage and pre-date 2005 Also, based on materials and professional advice, MemoryLaneVintiques believes the artist made this collection between 1970-1990 respectively.

    HERE IS WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT THE ARTWORK!
    THE ARTIST'S COLLECTION IS AN EXAMPLE OF MIXED-MEDIA
    ART NOUVEAU-MOSAIC-MID CENTURY MODERN-TRASH ART-CRACKLE GLASS!
    **Art Nouveau is traditionally inspired by nature and the artists normally uses angles, geometric
    , and dimensional shapes to illustrate their vision. It is known to be used in art sculptures symbolizing Fertility, peace, reflective beauty, and patience…all which is found thru God’s Nature.
    The artist used pottery techniques, hand-painting, dip glazing, hand-sculpting, wood working, as well as recycled glass as tessarae for mosaic puzzling. The structures were shaped in the style of antique apothecary vessels from around the world. Other than the removable lids, these are one piece structures, and are not attached by glue seams. Truly magnificent craftsmanship on display from the artist on the time it took using "mosaic" as the art pattern.
    The ARTIST COLOR PALETTE is Dark Brown, Amber, Cream, Black Accent, and Gold (Tiger's Eye)
    Conditions are great, 2 small chips in one vessel (see photos). The photo glass reflection does sometimes make it seem glass pieces are missing on items like these...there is no chunking of glass........... I promise. More photos of this art is available just PM the shop to request.
