Vintage Art Glass Compote Bowl.

by renowned glass artist Simon Moore.

This relatively early piece is signed and dated 1993.

Beautiful handblown, free form, bottle green glass in two sections. It really is a unique and stunning item to behold with organic form and no question of it's handmade quality when inspecting it closely.

If you are unfamiliar with Moore's work he has been one of the leading British glass artists for many years and was the first non Italian creative director of Salviati glass as well as Dartington and his work has been sold by Liberty and Conran as well as being featured in The Victoria and Albert Museum.

His modern work is represented by The Vessel gallery in London:

I have also found an article from The Independant from around the time when this piece was made which is quite an interesting insight into his studio at the time:

This tazza is in excellent vintage condition with no chips or cracks and only some very minor wear as you would expect. Please see photographs. 

Measuring: 24.5cm diameter X 19cm high.
