AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Splendid pair of Murano art glass vases, entirely handmade (Murano, the 1960s).
The pieces masterfully fuse two of the most complex and sought-after techniques of the historic Venetian glassworks.
Sommerso: an impeccable color stratification in the vibrant tones of aquamarine blue and blueberry pink.
Bullicante: a dense, geometric pattern of controlled air bubbles trapped within the colored layer, acting as natural lenses that magnify the three-dimensionality and the luster of objects beneath every light source.
Both vases feature a dynamic design with elongated, hot-formed organic shapes that resemble a flame or open fingers, characteristic of Seguso-signed display pieces from that period.
They rest on sturdy, stable lobed bases in transparent glass that show only the mark of the rough puntello pressed on hot, testifying to the artisanal craftsmanship of the era carried out without the aid of industrial molds.
Conditions: New, perfect, for collection. Clear and brilliant glass, free of scratches, chips, restorations or opacities.
Total weight: 3.72 kg (a substantial lot in terms of material density, crystal thickness, and overall quality).
Rare pieces to be found as a coordinated pair and in this impeccable state of preservation, ideal for enhancing prestigious interiors or high-level international collections.
Professional and secure packaging: Given the fragility and significant weight of the objects, the vases will be individually protected with triple-layer bubble wrap, placed in separate boxes and subsequently positioned in a single large reinforced carton filled with anti-shock padding.
