AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Art glass vase

Decorative vase in multicolored art glass, characterized by an elegant, slender silhouette, with a bulbous body, a narrow neck that flares upward, and a rounded foot. Elaborate cobalt blue glass handles are applied to the sides, shaped into volutes that give the object a sculptural character.

The surface is enriched by a vivid polychrome decoration, with glass inserts and filaments in shades of red, yellow, green, blue, white, and black, arranged in a dynamic pattern that runs vertically along the body. The overall effect is a striking chromatic play, enhanced by the transparency and shine of the glass.

Dimensions: 27 x 13 cm

Seller's Story

My name is Riccardo. I recently graduated in Art History from the University of Florence and I am passionate about porcelain. From tableware to artistic vases, from figurines to tea and coffee sets, I am fascinated by the mastery and creativity of great artisans and designers who manage to shape this fragile material, transforming a rough mass into masterpieces with a story to tell. During my years at university I began to become interested in the history of nineteenth- and twentieth-century tableware; today, every day, I deal with prestigious porcelain pieces that always have something to say to me and to those who purchase them. I love that every day I can discover more about the objects I find while traveling around Italy, always learning something new. I always try to convey to my clients this passion I have for the objects I sell, certain that each of them has a story to tell: that of the creator, that of the one who preserved it, and that of the person who will give it a new life.
