Art Glass Vase Signature? - ID = Brian Hirst of Sydney, Australia

<< < (2/2)

aa:
Not a drop of gold in sight  ;) Slight tarnishing gives a gold effect.

brewster:
That is the work of the renowned Sydney artist Brian Hirst. You can find him at

www.brianhirst.com

and in any number of galleries. Let Google be your guide to find items like yours.

The cross on the pontil scar is characteristic, so is the use of silver foil (right down to the folding pattern).

Thank you, Brewster- you hit the nail on the head! It is indeed a Hirst vase and I thank everyone who also supplied information on this. It is nice to meet such an informative group of glass experts. I hope to come here often to educate myself as well.
