Rare Art Deco Blown Art Glass Vase Designed by Napoleone Martinuzzi, Circa 1935. Constructed of white blown glass captured between two layers of translucent mauve. This important work, is part of Martinuzzi's Velato series for Zecchin & Martinuzzi, a Venetian glass company founded by Francesco Zecchin and Napoleone Martinuzzi. This work was performed by either of the two master glassblowers during this period, Alfredo Barbini or Otello Nason. The finessed form harkens back to ancient roman amphoriskos. Although created in the 1930s, it feels incredibly modern. The squat bulbous form with slight foot is finished with a translucent mauve rim, and two minimal soft scrolling handles. Acid-etched "Italia" on the underside of the base. A paper brand label would have likely been affixed to this piece as well.
CONDITION: Excellent vintage condition. Minimal wear to body with a singular light surface scratch 1/8” in length. Light abrasion to the underside of the base. One small rough area on the curl of an applied handle, from original production (as photographed) less
