Description from the seller
Murano Glass
Excellent
Carlo Moretti
Ø 15 cm. Height 1.5 cm. Weight 859 g.
Italian Post
An authentic sculpture of brilliant glass born from the fire of Murano furnaces, signed by one of the boldest and most revolutionary names in Italian glass design: Carlo Moretti.
This splendid ashtray encapsulates the essence of great Venetian modern design, blending the hefty mass of submerged crystal with the dynamism of a hypnotic inner vortex. Pure graphic lines in milk-white glass race in a fluid spiral, forever captured in the molten glass thanks to the complex technique of the "Mano Volante". A heat-impressed movement without the use of molds, which makes every single piece an irreplaceable work of art, able to play with natural light and create ever-new reflections.
• Double Authenticity: The piece retains the original Carlo Moretti workshop sticker intact and bears the precious diamond-point engraved signature directly on the glass surface.
It is presented in excellent condition; there may be small signs due to age and use that do not compromise its beauty or usefulness.
Please view the photographs carefully as they are an integral part of the description.
Any duties or additional charges will be charged to the buyer; please check in advance to avoid unpleasant surprises.
