Description

An excellent example of a Murano sommerso faceted art glass block vase, most likely by Mandruzzato, Murano, Italy. Vintage 1960s/1970s mid-century iconic design - unsure of exact vintage of this example, probably 1960s. It's a funky 5-sided pentagon shape with round inner, & shows hardly any signs of its age. A striking chunk of vintage art glass... It's 14cm tall x 4.6cm wide, weighs 461g & solid glass with a small round inner well suitable for holding a small cluster of short stemmed flowers. It's a deep blue grey colour (like Whitefriars Indigo) with a vibrant floating submerged golden amber colour (sommerso), all cased in clear. Five-sided top rim & base (flat & polished) with five rectangular polished flat vertical sides. It's all pretty much as it originally left the workshop, handmade by a skilled glassblower 50+ years ago. Excellent condition with no chips or scratches - just one teeny tiny fleabite on the outer rim that's hard to find. Flat polished base with no signs of age - it's been very well looked after. Ideal gift for a collector, great for a mid-century mantelpiece. Free P&P to the UK. Vintage Murano Mandruzzato Faceted Block Vase. Blue/Amber Sommerso Art Glass, Retro Italian. 1960S Mid Century, 5.5
