    The vase features a tall, elongated four-sided shape with straight vertical walls, slightly rounded corners, and rectangular open rim. The body has a strict geometric silhouette and rests on a square base with a decorative metal rim.

    The vase is crafted from cameo glass in a yellow-green color palette, with smooth transitions from rich olive and golden-yellow hues to muted gray-green tones. The surface is adorned with a picturesque depiction of a forest landscape. In the foreground, slender tree trunks stand tall with spreading branches and dense foliage. In the background, the silhouettes of trees can be seen gradually dissolving into a light haze. The contrast between the dark floral motif and the translucent golden-green background beautifully captures the atmosphere of a forest illuminated by soft sunlight.
