This 17-inch-tall Murano art glass vase is a masterful example of traditional Venetian craftsmanship, expertly hand-blown by Italian artisans.

Its voluptuous bulbous form gracefully tapers into a slender base before rising to a narrow neck that flares into a dramatic, clam-shell-like mouth that is trimmed with red glass. The exterior gleams with vibrant red glass, contrasting beautifully with the milky-white cased interior.

Effervescing across the surface of the vase a myriad of different sized oval forms in vibrant shades of green, blue, and yellow surround the dark gray intertwining swirling lines, enhancing its depth and movement.

At the bottom of the vase, a gray-white marbled pattern mirrors the texture of the dark-gray mottled granite block base, grounding the piece both visually and materially.
