The flowing organic form and substantial weight reflect the hallmarks of fine Venetian craftsmanship, likely from the mid-century period.

While unmarked, this piece strongly resembles works by Murano studios such as Seguso or Barbini and displays techniques typical of Italian sommerso and aventurine glass from the 1950s–70s.

This striking art glass bowl is attributed to Murano, based on its craftsmanship, materials, and stylistic characteristics commonly associated with mid-20th century Venetian glasswork:
~A biomorphic freeform shape
~A layered lattimo casing (milky white glass exterior)
~A vibrant aqua interior with controlled gold aventurine flecking
~A smooth, polished base without a pontil mark
~A substantial hand-blown construction weighing 2 lbs 4 oz

This piece presents beautifully as a centerpiece or collector’s accent, and would enhance any Murano, Italian glass, or mid-century modern collection. See less
