Pair of large blown glass vases – Gordiola Glassworks, early 20th centurySuperb pair of hand-blown glass vases, made by the famous Gordiola crystal factory in Mallorca at the beginning of the 20th century. These imposing pieces display the lightness and irregularities typical of manual glasswork, testifying to a know-how passed down since the 18th century. The Gordiola glassworks dates back to 1719, when master glassmaker Blas Rigal obtained permission to build a glass furnace in Palma, financed by the Catalan-Aragonese Gordiola family. Since then, the factory has become emblematic of the art of blown glass in Mallorca. These vases, in perfect condition, offer beautiful transparency and an elegant curved shape.
