Vintage 2004 Dan and Joi LaChaussee Studio Art Glass Large Abstract Geometric Vase

Crafted in 2004 by highly acclaimed artists Dan and Joi LaChaussee, this substantial studio art glass vessel exemplifies decades of expertise in glassblowing. Operating from their Whidbey Island hot shop, the LaChaussee team draws upon their extensive background—including formative education at the renowned Pilchuck Glass School—to execute complex, multi-layered designs.

This monumental 19.5-inch vase showcases their mastery of the glassblowing process, utilizing intricate techniques to apply raised abstract geometric motifs. An opaque black exterior and vibrant red interior provide a striking canvas for the bold, primary-colored glass applications, which are sculpted and fused onto the piece at temperatures reaching 2,200 degrees Fahrenheit. The immense scale and technically demanding execution of this centerpiece justify its position as a major, collectible work of contemporary glass art.
