An original hand-blown art glass vase by Australian glass artist Alex Mitrovic, created in 1983 and signed by the artist. This elegant vessel features a gently spiralled form in warm amber and opaque white glass, demonstrating Mitrovic’s refined approach to colour, movement and contemporary glass design.
The subtle spiral movement through the body of the vase creates a sense of fluidity and depth, while the restrained palette highlights the clarity and precision of the hand-blown form. Balancing functional design with sculptural qualities, this piece reflects the innovative spirit of Australian studio glass during the early 1980s.
Alex Mitrovic is associated with the early JamFactory Glass Workshop in Adelaide, where he trained as part of the Australian studio glass movement during the late 1970s and early 1980s. He was also active in Wagga Wagga, contributing to the development of glassmaking in the region during the early 1980s.
Mitrovic’s work is recognised for its bold contemporary aesthetic, combining technical control with expressive use of colour and form. His contribution to the Australian studio glass movement continues to be appreciated by collectors for its clarity, modernity and distinctive character.
Signed by the artist and dated 1983.
