A Pair of Wheaton Ware Mid-Century Green Glass Bud Vases with Gilt Decoration - A matched pair of Mid-Century Modern Wheaton Ware bud vases. The vases are crafted from dark olive green or smoky glass and feature a baluster or hourglass form defined by a molded rope or twisted glass band near the base. Decoration includes heavy gold/gilt application covering the flared neck and foot, and a highly stylized, geometric abstract wing motif executed in gilt enamel on the main body. The attribution to Wheaton Ware is supported by consistent market consensus. No manufacturer markings are visible, though small iridescent circular stickers remain affixed to the rim of each piece.
