Eerie Glow Again

Although a good design can remain in fashion for years, some have more mixed fortunes.  I didn't know about Delphis when it was new, and hugely popular, but caught the second wave a few years ago, once it had risen again from a very deep trough.
This vase, painted by Lynn Gregory in the early 1970's, was one of my first discoveries.  I loved it, and thought it was pure 1960's/70's.  Which the decoration maybe, but in fact the vase is thrown in the same shape as the one in the previous post.  A shape that remained in production, despite being designed by John Adams over 40 years earlier.
