Vase - Murano glass

Elegant decorative bottle or decanter in Murano blown glass, dating most likely to the 1950s–1960s (Mid-Century Modern style). The piece stands out for its refined technical execution and the distinctive treatment of the glass material: Form: The bottle body features a slender silhouette shaped like a club or elongated drop (bulbous at the bottom, then tapering to a long, thin neck with a flared rim). It rests on a circular base, slightly flared, in transparent glass, enriched with inclusions of gold leaf (an immersed “sommerso” work with gold dust). Decoration and texture: The distinctive aspect of the work lies in the vibrant surface texture of the main body. The glass, with a base amethyst/purple or brownish-red hue depending on the light, is worked with a dense ripply or “ice” texture (crackle or bark effect), enhanced by diffuse and irregular inclusions of aventurine or gold and silver leaf, which give the surface a shifting, metallic luminosity. Stopper: The decanter is topped by a conspicuous sculptural oviform stopper, also blown and relief-worked with the same material technique (golden striations and trapped bubbles / craquelé), finished at the apex by a small spherical blue-glass knob. The mating plug/neck join is smooth and satin-finished.
