Description from the seller

The Murano glass vase "Opalini" is one of the great classics in the collections of the renowned designer. With a height of 29 cm and a diameter of 13 cm, this piece captures attention thanks to its elegant simplicity and harmonious color contrast.

Made with the traditional Murano technique, the vase features an exterior in bluino, an intense and refined shade of blue, which contrasts with the whiteness of the opaline white interior. This play of colors not only enhances the vase's clean lines and simple form, but also creates a striking visual effect.

The artist's ability to blend crystals in contrasting tones is fully evident in this creation, which manages to balance tradition and modernity. The use of opaline glass, a material with a long tradition in Murano art, adds an extra level of depth and luminosity to the piece.

The vase design is as simple as it is sophisticated, characterized by soft curves and a smooth finish that highlight its transparency and shine. This piece surely earns a place among Carlo Nason's best-known works, not only for its refined aesthetics but also for the craftsmanship it represents.

The "Opalini" vase is a perfect example of how traditional craftsmanship can meet contemporary design, offering an object that is both functional and highly decorative. A work that not only enhances the environment but also tells a story of culture, tradition, and innovation.
