The 'Fiorentina' vase was created in the 1950s in an Italian glassworks, embodying the aesthetics of mid-century modern design. Its tall, slender silhouette with a bulbous lower section smoothly transitions into a long, narrow neck, while the wide, rounded base provides stability. The main color is a soft, pastel blue with a cool undertone that gently fades into a milky white at the base, forming an elegant gradient in the hand-blown glass. The matte, velvety surface is devoid of gloss, and slight variations in glass thickness highlight the artisanal quality and organic fluidity of the form. The absence of decorative patterns emphasizes the purity of the design and the balanced proportions typical of mid-century Italian modernism. The vase shows no signs of damage or restoration—preserved in very good condition with original finish and patina.The vase’s flowing form and delicate pastel tone evoke the Italian 1950s, when glass became a medium for modern lightness. Its silhouette seems to speak of a time fascinated by light, pure lines, and mastery of craft. The matte surface gently diffuses rays, while the cool blue hue conjures images of morning mist drifting over Tuscany—each detail, from harmonious proportions to the velvety touch, carries the calm assurance of an era that valued balance and precision.The vase can be paired with other 1950s or 1960s decor pieces, such as ceramic figurines or minimalist graphics, to highlight its mid-century modern spirit. It would sit well on a light wood sideboard, where its pastel blue complements natural materials. Combining it with a single branch or a flower with a bold form will help maintain a cohesive, restrained composition. In interiors with a muted palette—white, grey, beige—the vase will subtly stand out, while more eclectic surroundings will bring out the airy quality of mid-century Italian design.
