This stunning 'Cordonato d'Oro' vase, crafted by renowned Murano glass artist Ercole Barovier around 1965, exemplifies the beauty and innovation for which Barovier is celebrated. The vase is distinguished by its vibrant golden ribbed (cordonato) design, enhanced with rich aventurine accents that shimmer under the light. The handblown glasswork showcases Barovier’s mastery of the Murano glass tradition, blending ancient techniques with a modernist aesthetic. The thick, textured bands give the piece a dynamic presence, making it a true statement in any collection of mid-century glass art.
Artist Background: Ercole Barovier, a key figure in 20th-century glass design, directed the Barovier & Toso company, one of Murano's most esteemed glassmaking firms. Known for his bold experimentation and mastery of traditional techniques, Barovier created iconic designs that contributed to Murano glass's global prestige. The 'Cordonato d'Oro' series, characterized by its ribbed forms and rich use of gold leaf, remains one of his most celebrated achievements.
