This piece is crafted in the style of renowned Italian glasshouses, specifically the Murano Fazzoletto (Handkerchief) technique.

This elegant vessel features a deeply saturated Cobalt Blue casing, which contrasts dramatically with large, gracefully stretched white spots (opaline or milk glass). The organic polka dot design is beautifully asymmetrical as it flows around the curved body.

The rim is pulled and folded while the glass was molten, creating the iconic 'handkerchief' or 'fazzoletto' (little scarf) edge. This stunning, large-scale vase makes an unforgettable statement piece on a console, mantel, or in a sunlit window.
