This Murano glass vase from the 1970s exemplifies Italian decorative craftsmanship, hand-blown from pastel pink glass. The elongated, oval body features a narrow, slightly flared neck and a small, flat rim, accented by two decorative handles stylized as abstract 'ears'. The matte, lightly textured surface—created using the scavo technique—recalls the look of ancient, weathered glass, with a soft, subtly uneven color distribution and a delicate frosted effect. The handles, in the same pink tone but with greater translucency and a gentle swirl pattern, integrate seamlessly into the silhouette. The overall design is minimalist yet sculptural; there are no chips or cracks, only minor scratches and typical traces of use consistent with its age. The vase is preserved in good vintage condition.This piece evokes the spirit of 1970s Italian design: its subtle coloration and matte finish speak to a fascination with historical craft, reinterpreted through the lens of the era. The restrained form, animated by sculptural handles, tells a story of tradition meeting modernity. The lightly frosted pink glass seems to capture and diffuse light, casting a poetic shadow—an echo of evening reflections across the Venetian lagoon.The vase could serve as a statement piece on a console or sideboard in a living room, where its refined texture and delicate color nuances are most visible. It would pair well with pale wood furniture or in mid-century modern interiors, alongside ceramics or glass from the 1960s and 1970s. It can be displayed with subtly colored flowers that do not compete with the softness of the glass, or left empty as a standalone sculptural object.
