$Standing 6 1/4 inches tall, this gorgeous bud vase is a good example of the work of Rueven Art Glass toward the beginning. This vase was purchased in the 1980s. Here is the information I have found on Rueven glass: Rueven doesn't make any glass of course, they do the surface treatment\decoration on it only. They purchase clear glass blanks from glass makers like Arc International\Crystal d'Arques\Luminarc..., Indiana Glass, Fenton and a few others. The first lines of Rueven glass was decorated with the color mauve being the dominating color on the pieces. In the late 1980s they changed from mauve to a rose pink shade and in the 1990s they began doing items with green or yellow as the dominating color. All of these items come in a matte\frosted finish or a satin finish, which is like the other except it still have a bit of a shine to it, just like satin cloth does. Later they began doing the color decorations on clear, natural glossy glass, plus they also did a treatment using stencils for the decorated areas on plain clear glass item. This bud vase is from their earliest period and is quite collectible. Add it to your American Art Glass collection today.$
