Vintage MCM Kanawha Amberina Hobnail Swung Glass Vase Red Yellow
This vintage Kanawha amberina hobnail swung glass vase captures the bold artistry of Mid-Century Modern glassware. The vase features a vibrant amberina color shift that moves from fiery red at the top to glowing yellow at the base, enhanced by the textured hobnail pattern. Its elongated, swung form and scalloped rim highlight the craftsmanship that made Kanawha Glass a recognized name among American art glass producers.
Produced in Dunbar, West Virginia, by Kanawha Glass Company during the 1960s–1970s, this piece reflects the popularity of amberina glass in Mid-Century design. The hobnail texture not only adds visual depth but also creates a tactile dimension that collectors value. Whether displayed as a statement centerpiece, used to hold fresh or dried flowers, or added to a curated collection, this vase embodies both decorative beauty and collectible significance.
Why It’s Special?
This piece is considered rare due to its combination of swung form, hobnail texture, and amberina coloration. While Kanawha produced many styles of glassware, amberina hobnail swung vases were made in smaller quantities, making them harder to find in excellent condition today.
