This is a great item with a racy provenance! Designed in 1969 by Frank Thrower for Dartington Glass the raised surface design of what look at first glance like daisy type flowers is actually based on the human nipple - hence the name 'Nipple Vase' and it was considered a highly controversial and x-rated item at the time. It's mould blown and in their beautiful Kingfisher Blue glass colourway - this is the larger size (pattern no: FT95). Please see all photographs for alternative views and close-ups.
SIZE: Height 5.75in/14.5cm Weight 416g
