Glasatelier De Spiraal - Cees van Olst - Paperweight - Glass

A beautiful and historically interesting hand-blown crystal paperweight / glass art object from 1993. This sphere was produced at the well-known Drentse Glasmuseum and Glasatelier "De Spiraal" in Hoogeveen, founded by the renowned Dutch glass pioneer Cees van Olst. The paperweight features a technically very deftly executed, dynamic spiral form in the bright primary colors red, blue and green, gracefully winding around a central, controlled air bubble. The object reflects light in a brilliantly stunning way. Details and Signature: • Provenance: Glasatelier De Spiraal, Hoogeveen, Netherlands. • Artist/Studio: Cees van Olst / Studio De Spiraal. • Dating: 1993. • Signature: On the underside, the polished pontil hand-signed with a diamond-tipped pen: "De Spiraal Hoogeveen 1993". • Condition: In very good vintage condition with minimal age-related signs (slight scuffing on the stand ring). No chips or deep scratches. A beautiful and unique collectible for enthusiasts of Dutch studio glass and Drenthe's art-historical heritage. Will, of course, be shipped with great care and safely packed.

Estimate:£26.18
