They were designed in the late 1960s by Mario Pinzoni for Murano glassworks, Seguso Vetri d’Arte, but were probably produced in the late 1970s or thereabouts.

Neodymium glass is purple-pink under most lighting, including in daylight, but changes to a pale blue under fluorescent lighting, as per the second image.

We acquired these some years ago from a sale of old stock and samples from the Seguso factory. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
