This listing is for the RED & ICE-BLUE piece only shown in every photo. The others have been included in the group photo to get a relative feel for the colour and size of this piece on offer. An art glass vase made BY HAND in Murano, Italy.
This piece has an acid mark with a logo and the word Murano. These acid marks were usually used in Italy in the 1950s so Im surmising this is a 50s piece. This comment is based on my experience only- its an extremely rare piece and I have been unable to place the maker definitively. It could be a Venini piece- vintage Murano pieces with acid marks are rarely seen. I love how this is an eye-catching piece yet so simple in design.
Its simplicity draws you in and this doesnt happen too often. Simple and eye-catching in one piece is rare and the work of a true creative genius. This piece incorporates two glass-making techniques- the red opaque sections are fascinating and Ive rarely seen this technique used. The opaque red glass appears to have been swirled within clear glass. I get the feeling this piece was done by one of the Italian design heavyweights and if this is the case its worth a lot more than this price.
This vintage Murano piece has superseded trends and will continue to tell stories for generations to come. There are very few better ways to invest in your home and in our environment. This vintage piece is in excellent condition for its age with no noticeable damage to report at all. NO cracks, NO chips and NO repairs. Id say this piece is about 50 60 years old so it does have signs of use but nothing thats noticed.This vase has been used so has feint water clouding. This is not noticed when the piece is on display. This item has a height of 23cm and about 13cm across at the widest point.
