This image showcases a Covered Flip Glass tumbler designed by American artist Paul Ward in the 1940s. The intricately decorated piece, now part of the collection at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., exemplifies the rich artistic heritage of the United States during the mid-20th century. The Covered Flip Glass tumbler, created using watercolor and pen and ink on paperboard, boasts a striking bird motif engraved on its lid. The lid, which flips open to reveal the glass interior, adds a functional yet decorative element to the design. The glass itself is adorned with colorful, geometric patterns that complement the bird motif, making this piece a true standout. The Covered Flip Glass tumbler is a testament to the artistic innovation and creativity that flourished in America during the 1930s and 1940s. Paul Ward's design, with its elegant engravings and vibrant colors, reflects the unique artistic sensibilities of the period. This item, now preserved in the National Gallery of Art, serves as an important reminder of the rich artistic legacy of the United States and the artists who contributed to it. The Covered Flip Glass tumbler is an index of American design, showcasing the country's ability to blend functionality with aesthetics, and the enduring appeal of decorative arts. This piece, with its timeless beauty and intricate details, continues to captivate viewers and inspire artists to this day.
