This Murano glass vase, from the 20th century, is a piece that exemplifies the mastery of craftsmanship and the rich tradition of Venetian blown glass. The surface of the vase features a fascinating combination of colors that spectacularly capture and reflect light.
The body of the vase exhibits a dark background dotted with intricate bubble patterns, creating a dynamic and deep visual effect. On this black base, colorful elements are displayed that seem to float inside the glass, evoking an underwater landscape or a fantastic garden. The organic shapes, some of them reminiscent of leaves or sea creatures, are executed in vibrant shades of green, blue, yellow and red, adding a striking and harmonious contrast.
The vase is an excellent example of the use of the murrina technique, where fragments of colored glass are embedded and fused together during the blowing process. This technique, which requires great skill and precision, is a distinctive mark of Murano glass. The murrinas in this piece are arranged in a way that creates a balanced and rhythmic composition, showing the skill of the craftsman.
Its dimensions are suitable to be the center of attention in any space, either as an independent decorative element or as a container for flowers. The wide mouth and spacious body allow for versatile functionality without compromising its artistic value.
In short, this 20th century Murano glass vase is a work that encapsulates the essence of Venetian art. Its combination of traditional techniques, innovative design and high quality materials make it a collector's item worthy of admiration and preservation.
