When it comes to shape, silhouette and design, art glass offerings disregard rhyme and reason, opting for ultra-contemporary guideline-free forms. Creativity is on display with asymmetric configurations, abstract patterns and undulating edges. Bold colorations punctuate with panache, making these modern models demand attention. — Lindsey Strader

	Transparent coloring allows light to pass through the Sunrise Flora and Fauna vases from Glass Eye Studio ($44 each).
The ocean blue Dia charger from Payne Street & The Breece Collection spotlights abstract red swirl designs.
	Mandarin orange colors the DeSantis Designs glass bowl fashion-forward with undulating edges ($108).
Global Views' Sun Kissed vases boast asymmetric openings in fiery red and flame orange ($275 to $600).
	The Incalmo Orb vessel is a one-of-a-kind handmade, blown and carved art glass sculpture, featuring a skewed opening and vibrant colorations from Jamie Harris Studio ($4,500).
