This striking Iwatsu Hineri bowl showcases the iconic sculptural style of late‑1970s to 1980s Japanese art glass. The form features five flowing lobes, each curving outward to create a dynamic flower‑like silhouette. The colour transitions from deep red at the rim into glowing orange toward the centre, giving the piece a warm, fiery radiance.
The bowl sits on a clear twisted base, a signature Hineri detail that adds lift, movement, and optical interest. At 1.15 kg and 26 cm wide, it has a substantial presence without the heaviness of the larger Hineri forms — perfect for collectors who love bold colour and sculptural lines.
A beautifully made example of Japanese mid‑century art glass, ideal as a statement piece or addition to a curated glass collection.
