The museum identifies this glass as blown glass and credits Quezal Art Glass and Decorating Company (American, 1901–1924).

The museum's collection notes: The Quezal Art Glass and Decorating Company was begun by former employees of Louis Comfort Tiffany as a rival operation in 1902. With its expressive form and brilliant golden iridescence, this vase represents the finest work produced by the Queens, New York, company in the Art Nouveau style.
