Phoenix Glass Sculptured Art Glass Vase in the Wild Rose pattern circa 1935

Description

This sale is for a Phoenix Glass Sculptured Art Glass Vase in the Wild Rose pattern made around 1930-40.
This Art Deco vase has a Latte color overlay that really shows off the details in the deep relief of the leaves and flowers.
This would make an outstanding lamp with a secondary bulb in the vase itself.  The light would shine through the relief beautifully.
Standing 10 1/2" tall, this vase is about 7 3/4" at the widest part, 4 3/8" across the top and 3 7/8" across the bottom.
There is the remainder of a Phoenix Label on the bottom.
This vase is in Very good PREOWNED condition with no chip or cracks.
Please look at all of the photos as they are the best description and ask any questions BEFORE purchasing.
Some of the photos are taken with a light shining down into the vase to show what it would look like lit up.
THANK YOU for your consideration.
From the Glass Encyclopedia:
The Phoenix Glass Company was formed in 1880 in Monaca, Pennsylvania and like many other glass companies at that time, they initially thrived on the market for oil and gas lamp chimneys. Moving on to making
lamps, globes, shades and electric light bulbs, they formed alliances with a number of glassworks and individuals who could bring specialist glass-making skills to Phoenix. During the 1880's and 1890's they produced a large volume of coloured cut glass, etched glass, hand decorated glass, and fancy coloured art glass, such as mother-of-pearl satin glass which they patented in 1885.
However, the name Phoenix today is primarily associated with the Sculptured Art Glass which they produced from 1933 to 1958. This glass was hand blown into special molds which had mold joints following the pattern in the glass to avoid obvious mold lines. These patterns had bold designs raised up very prominently from the background. Contrasting colours were applied either to the background or the relief designs, and then fired or baked onto the glass at temperatures over 1000 degrees Fahrenheit.
For a time during the 1930's Phoenix had the molds for making this kind of glass on loan from the Consolidated Lamp and Glass Company, which had closed down temporarily to avoid running at a loss. From 1933 to 1936 Phoenix produced Consolidated's
Martele
designs under the name
Phoenix Reuben line
. There were differences in the glass quality and the colours used, which are recorded in specialist books on Phoenix glass. On the whole, Phoenix used only one colour and the contrasting colour of the glass; they did not use multi-colouring (apart from some experimental pieces produced in the 1970's by Jeanette Shade and Novelty Company for Phoenix).
In 1936 the
Martele
molds were returned to Consolidated. But Phoenix was already marketing its own designs in Sculptured glass, which used very similar techniques. Their Wild Rose vase was virtually identical to the Consolidated vase called Dogwood, but the colouring and finish were usually different. Phoenix produced an extensive range of Sculptured glass designs which were different from those produced by Consolidated; and apart from the period 1933 to 1936, the Consolidated designs were not produced by Phoenix. Because there seems to be so much confusion between the two companies, it is worth stating very clearly that Phoenix Glass and the Consolidated Lamp and Glass Company were quite separate companies at all stages.
