It features a cylindrical volumetric rectangular body with rounded edges. The interior of the piece is infused with opaque cardinal red Murano glass while the exterior is blown in translucent glass, creating a stunning juxtaposition. With its refined color palate, striking geometric form, and clean modernist lines, this piece is as much a functional vase- ideal for presenting flowers- as an objet d'art in its own right. It would be a winning addition to any style of interior from classic Mid Century Modern to contemporary. It is in excellent vintage condition.

Italy, 20th Century
