Condition: very good condition special remarks: very slght traces of wear. From a berlin glass collection we offer this rare crepuscolo vase by barovier & toso, murano. The design probably comes from ercole barovier. The decoration, rutile and gold leaf, shimmers mysteriously against the opaline background. The crepuscolo technique was only used on barovier and toso. Barovier and toso also only work with the best glass quality, without streaks or air bubbles. in a classic, strict shape, the elongated cup that opens upwards has a lot of smooth outer walls that show off the unusual crepuscolo technique. Slight irregularities are intentional and add to the appeal of this unusual piece. A large bouquet of flowers looks wonderful in the rare vase. See less
