The vivid scarlet red body is formed in a freeform, pinched-lip silhouette and features evenly spaced controlled bubbles—a technique known as bullicante, popularized by Seguso Vetri d’Arte and other Murano studios in the mid-20th century.

Heavy and luminous, this sculptural bowl glows richly in natural light, casting fiery reflections that make it a captivating centerpiece or catchall.

While unsigned, several physical characteristics strongly support its Murano attribution:
~Clear bullicante bubble pattern, symmetrical and evenly suspended within the glass
~Deep coloration consistent with mid-century Murano production
~Polished base with no mold seams, indicating hand-blown construction
~Organic asymmetry typical of artisan work from Murano in the 1950s–70s

A fantastic addition to modernist, retro, or eclectic interiors. See less
