Circa: 2010
Manufacturer: David Salazar, California
Made by well-known Californian glass artist David Salazar, this contemporary art glass toothpick holder is one of the few David made that is based on the 2009 NTHCS Convention holder. David Salazar got his start with the Zephyr Studios before working at Lundberg Glass Studios in the early 1970s and went out on his own around 1983. He is particularly well known for his Moon & Star pattern as well as his paperweights and marbles. This example is signed and dated 7-10 Salazar.
This toothpick holder stands 2 3/8 inches tall and is 1 3/16 inches across the top rim. The base glass is clear but it has been sprayed with mineral salts in the tradition of Art Nouveau Tiffany or Steuben glass. The resulting surface has overtones of purple, blue, rose and gold. The design of swirls is known as the King Tut pattern. It is in excellent condition. A great example of great glass by a great contemporary glass artist.
I am a long time member and past President (1988) of the National Toothpick Holder Collectors Club. I guarantee the authenticity of this TP. For more info on toothpick holders as a great collectible, visit the National Toothpick Holder Collectors Society web page at (www.nthcs.org) |
