Striking Murano art glass vase featuring a magenta ruby glass core encased in cobalt blue and clear crystal. The elongated internal drop form is suspended within a heavy rectangular block, creating dramatic color shifts and optical depth from every angle. A beautiful example of Italian Murano sommerso glass, known for its layered color technique and sculptural modernist forms. This piece has a strong mid-century modern / modernist design aesthetic and displays beautifully with natural light. Height: approx 30 cm (11.8).
Width: approx 7 cm (2.75). Very good condition with no chips or cracks observed. Light surface wear consistent with age. Item comes from a smoke-free home.
