    The teardrop-shaped vase features a smooth expansion in its lower third, a tapering neck with a slight flare at the rim. It rests on a circular base. The body is made of translucent multi-layered glass with soft transition from delicate pink at the base to amber-yellow and opalescent milky tones at the top. The surface is decorated with raised floral motif depicting blooming dahlias with needle-like petals, buds, and lush foliage against a sunset sky. The pattern is executed using the cameo glass technique.
