Mid-Century Hand-Blown Clear and Smoked Murano Glass Vase signed Vetri Murano
-
Description
This striking mid-century modernist vase, crafted in Murano, Italy, showcases the renowned artistry of Venetian glassmakers. Signed by Vetri Murano and dating to circa 1960, the piece is hand-blown with a harmonious interplay of clear, smoked, and grey tones. Its focal point is a bold central band in grey, adorned with the bullicante technique—delicate, evenly spaced air bubbles encased within the glass—adding texture and depth to the design.
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.
