Peill & Putzler - Vase (2) - lead crystal - Massive block vases

Peill & Putzler – Set of 2 solid block vases – 24% lead crystal – Germany, approx. 1970s Description For sale is an attractive lot of two solid block vases from Peill & Putzler, Germany, made of clear 24%-lead crystal. Both vases carry the original gold label “Peill Germany 24% Lead Crystal” and display the geometric, tactile design language characteristic of modern German glass design of the period. The first vase has a rectangular block form with a striking relief of 16 circular, raised elements arranged in a regular 4 × 4 grid. The individual “bubbles” create an interesting play of light and reflections and give the solid glass object a distinctly decorative effect. The second vase is also designed as a solid glass block and shows on the front a large concentric circle- or spiral-structure. The flat faces are matte. Through the strong sculptural detailing, a striking optical effect arises that varies with the angle of light. Both objects are typical of the modernist glass design of the 1960s/1970s and are suitable as decorative standalone pieces as well as as a pair for a collector. Dimensions and weight Bubble/Relief vase: - Height: approx. 17.3 cm - Width: approx. 13.8 cm - Depth of the glass block: approx. 7 cm - Maximum depth including relief: approx. 9.6 cm - Weight: approx. 555 g Circle/Spiral vase: - Height: approx. 16 cm - Width: approx. 16 cm - Depth: approx. 6.5 cm - Weight: approx. 1,123 g Total weight: approx. 1,678 g Both vases are in overall very good vintage condition. The bubble vase shows only light, age- and use-related scratches. For the circle/spiral vase, at the top edge there is a small chip of about 1 mm. This is documented in the detail photos. In addition, this vase also shows only light signs of use.
