The large Opalina Fiorentina vase from the 1960s stands as an example of Italian glassmaking from the mid-century modern era. Crafted from opaline glass in a cool, pastel celadon green, the vase features an elongated, slender neck and a teardrop-shaped, rounded body. The wide, rounded foot offers stability, while the neck ends in a subtly asymmetrical, angled cut that lends a dynamic accent to the otherwise minimalist silhouette. The vase is monochromatic, free from patterns or additional embellishments, and its form is unified and clean. Made from a single piece of glass with precise craftsmanship, the surface is flawlessly smooth, glossy and consistent throughout. The vase is in very good condition, with a minor flaw visible at the edge of the base, as shown in the photographs. This glass form embodies the voice of Italian modernism from the 1960s: purity of line, restraint, and a subtle interplay of light on the milky surface. The vase evokes the post-war Italian atmosphere, where even everyday objects became carriers of contemporary aesthetics. The celadon green glass, semi-opaque and cool, seems to capture light, producing a tranquil, almost ethereal mood—as if the glass shape holds the memory of a spring morning, when green is still pastel and soft. The vase may be displayed solo on a console or sideboard, becoming a strong decorative focal point in a living room or hallway. It would fit well in mid-century modern-inspired settings, minimalist interiors, or collector's spaces, where the purity of form and color can be fully appreciated. It can be paired with dark woods, light surfaces, or other glass objects to create a harmonious composition. The vase appears particularly striking with delicate-stemmed flowers, or left empty as a self-contained accent. The listed price refers to a single piece.
