AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Elegant and iconic single-flower art vase in Murano blown glass, conceived by the celebrated glass master Alfredo Barbini during the 1960s.

This splendid work stands out for its massive circular block structure in pure transparent glass, deftly handcrafted in freehand. The inner base encloses a suggestive artistic composition: an abstract submerged landscape made of emerald green glass dust enriched with controlled inclusions of air bubbles, flanked by asymmetric fragments in vivid red and amber tones.
In the center, the characteristic vertical pour carves the core of the vase, creating the perfect seat to welcome a single flower stem.

Signature to the side of the base.
Production label on both the front and the base.

A collectible piece with a strong visual impact, perfect for enriching Mid-Century Modern design interiors or for display in a prestigious showcase of 20th-century art glass.

Excellent condition.
Slight signs of time and wear clearly visible in the photos.
