The form features broad, petal-like folds and a glowing interior that moves from deep vibrant red along the rim into apricot and cream toward the center — an iconic Murano gradient.

The shimmer throughout the interior suggests the use of foglia d’oro or finely milled aventurine, suspended between layers of glass for an iridescent effect. The piece is finished with a polished pontil and no maker’s mark — consistent with unsigned studio works from the 1950s–70s.

Weighing 6 pounds and spanning nearly 11 inches, this piece is a sculptural statement ideal for coffee tables, consoles, or dramatic shelving displays.

Key Features:
~Sommerso construction with vibrant red to apricot interior
~Opaque lattimo white base
~Even gold shimmer throughout (likely foglia d’oro)
~Polished pontil; unsigned
~Weight: 6 lbs
