David Lotton, American, Art Glass Double Tulip Vase. Signed on underside. 

The vase features a prominent orange-gold, iridescent section that gleams with a metallic luster, contrasting beautifully with the darker, translucent areas. Swirls of deep teal, purple, and black are intricately embedded within the glass, creating a sense of depth and movement. These patterns resemble stylized feathers or organic tendrils, adding to the vase's naturalistic appeal. 

Size: 9 1/2 x 4 x 11 in.

By the 2000s Lotton, his sons David, John, and Daniel, and eventually his grandson Robert Lagestee all worked together at the Lotton Art Glass Gallery & Studios. He encouraged new artists with no training to start from scratch, just as he had done, and incorporated elements like raw sand, soda ash, lime, borax, zinc, and countless others to create unique colors and shapes. His pieces can be found in the Corning Museum of Glass, the Polk Museum in Florida, the Utah Museum of Fine Arts, and many more, as well as in private collections around the country, in particular the highly sought after pieces from his “Multi Flora” and “Cypriot” styles. Lotton passed away on September 17th, 2021, and his children continue to honor his legacy at the glassworks.
