This Italian art glass vase from the 1960s was crafted in the tradition of Murano, distinguished by its bulbous body that flows into a slender, elongated neck and culminates in a broad, undulating ruffled rim. The cool, clear glass is adorned with subtle spiraling white bands, while the entire surface is finished with a pearly iridescence that shimmers in hues of blue, pink, and green depending on the angle of the light. Hand-blown, as evidenced by the delicately asymmetric ruffled edge and visible pontil mark at the base, the vase has a smooth, high-gloss surface characteristic of mid-century modern glassware. Condition: original, with minor surface scratches and slight signs of use consistent with the era.This vase evokes the spirit of 1960s Italy, where technical experimentation with iridescence met the organic fluidity of modern form. The delicate spiral bands trace across the glass like wind on water, while the lustrous surface captures and refracts every ray of light, conjuring the lively ambiance of southern Europe. The form retains restraint, yet constantly plays with light and color, drawing from Murano tradition and the compositional clarity of mid-century design.The vase can serve as a focal point on a console or coffee table in a mid-century modern living space, but it could also be paired with minimalist ceramics or chromed accessories to highlight its luminous quality. In vintage collector’s interiors, it is worth combining with other 1960s glass objects, while in contemporary arrangements, its transparency and dynamic presence will be accentuated against dark wood or marble surfaces.
