Description: This unusual and stunning Mid-Century Modern Murano vase was realized in Italy, circa 1960. It features a highly textural volumetric ellipsoid form with a channeled organic exterior surface imbued with 24-karat yellow gold flecks lending it a semi opaque quality. Occupying an interesting interstice between transparency and opacity, the glass resembles frozen water. Beautifully (and obviously) crafted by hand by one of the great designers of the period, this piece is sure to delight discerning collectors of first rate Murano glass objects and fine midcentury design, in general. Its monochromatic palate and austere silhouette make this piece as versatile as it is aesthetically appealing, blending perfectly with any style of interior from Classic Mid-Century Modern to contemporary. It is in excellent vintage condition. Vase is in great shape with no damage but is a little dirty on the bottom inside that could be cleaned up better. Italy, circa 1960 Dimensions: Height: 9 7/8 in (24.9 cm) Width: 5 in (12.7 cm) Depth: 3.25 in (8.26 cm) Weighs: 3 lbs 1.4 oz
