AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

In this lot, a refined and elegant hand-blown art glass vase, a superb expression of excellence and the mastery of Murano glassmasters.

The vase stands out for a complex and elaborate spiral filigree work (also called whirl), enriched by canes of lattimo glass (opalescent white) and a lively sun yellow. The geometric patterns recall the historic Zanfirico technique, creating a dynamic visual play and a strong luminous impact that envelops the entire surface of the object, from the foot to the flared rim.

Characterized by a classic baluster silhouette with a long slender neck, this piece perfectly represents the design and taste of high Italian craftsmanship of the mid-20th century (Mid-Century). An exclusive piece of decor, ideal for art glass collectors or to embellish elegant interiors.
