Description from the seller
Large artistic glass vase from the 1960s
A piece of great decorative charm, characterized by refined “sommerso” (undersea) work with important cobalt blue applications fused into the transparent body and precious multicolored murrine scattered over the surface.
The elegant slender form is enriched by a magnificent wavy, undulating rim, typical of the best Murano production of the period, capable of creating continuous plays of light and reflections. The glass shows numerous bubbles and small internal inclusions, genuine features of the handcrafted hot-working process and not to be considered defects, but distinctive elements that attest to the uniqueness and manual craftsmanship.
The chromatic effect between the transparent crystal and the intense blue of the side applications is highly sought after, giving the vase an extremely modern presence while preserving all the elegance of mid-20th-century Italian vintage design. The multicolored floral murrine further enrich the composition with refined and vivid details.
Important decorative dimensions: height 32 cm, maximum width 19 cm, mouth diameter 14 cm.
In overall excellent conservative condition. Only very light signs of wear and small imperfections of the hand-blown artistic glass workmanship are noted, practically invisible when displayed and that do not compromise the aesthetic harmony of the piece in any way. Refer to the photographs, which are an integral part of the description.
Ideal object for refined environments, perfect in both modern and classical interiors. Magnificent as a centerpiece vase, decorative element for a console, bookshelves or professional studios. A piece capable of enhancing any space with the timeless charm of Venetian artistic glass.
