This auction is for a wonderful vintage rare Steuben crystal glass very large 7-sided block sculpture on marble base of what I believe is the New York City skyline surrounding Central Park in New York. The crystal glass block sculpture is in very nice condition, with no chips, cracks, hairlines, scratches or repairs. The flat marble/slate and felt sided base is also in very nice condition. The large heavy glass block sculpture was made to sit on this base as they are both the same shap...e. The sculpture is signed on one of the side corners with the Steuben signature as shown. Starting at the bottom of the crystal/glass block we see the park with people walking dogs, jogging, walking, and pushing children in baby carriages. Moving higher we see the tree line followed by the rising skyline apartment buildings and other buildings and as you get to the top there are the skyscrapers, clouds and stars. It is an exquisite piece of art glass that would look great in anyone’s collection. With the stand, The sculpture stands about 9 and three-quarter inches tall by around 4 1/4 inches long by just over 2 1/2 inches thick. The marble/slate base is about 1/2 inch thick and measures just over 6 1/4 inches long by about 4 1/2 inches wide and reminds me of the Superman exterior logo but in black. The underside of the base is all felt and there is a significant portion of felt on the top side to protect the glass/crystal base of the sculpture. Don’t miss out on this incredible Steuben find.
