Offered is a triangular Paul Harrie studio glass perfume bottle with a violet chamber encased in clear and opaque black glass with three facets and a tall angular stopper. The bottle is 5 3/4" tall, with the stopper, and 2 ¾ "wide. It is signed and dated on the bottom as shown, in like-new condition with no scratches, chips, scuffs, or repairs noted, and retains four silicone base protectors. Paul Harrie (ca1955-2016) created paperweights, vases, bowls, and perfume bottles influenced by his childhood memories of snow-covered landscapes and the clear icy winter light in North Dakota. After receiving an MFA from UCLA under the instruction of Richard Marquis, Harrie opened his studio in 1980. Harrie's work displays precision and attention to detail, rare in studio glass. Every piece is handcrafted and inspected to ensure the highest quality. A gifted and innovative glassblower, his work has been published in the Corning Museum of Glass New Glass Review and exhibited in galleries all over North America and at the Nelson Art Museum in Kansas City and the Royal Art Gallery in Kyoto, Japan.
