Signed by Vetri Murano and dating to circa 1960, the piece is hand-blown with a harmonious interplay of clear, smoked, and grey tones.

The vase's sculptural form exudes a refined simplicity, with clean lines and purposeful dimensionality that embody the elegance of mid-century modern design. The single grey band draws the eye to the centerpiece of the composition, creating a subtle yet impactful visual statement.

As an exemplary work of Murano glass craftsmanship, this vase effortlessly blends functional design with artistic detail, serving as a timeless collector’s piece and a hallmark of Italian mastery. In Excellent Vintage Condition.
