A refined free-form "shuttle" centerpiece/empty bowl with upwardly curved ends, crafted from murano artistic glass, blown and handcrafted using the sommerso technique, attributed to murano glass production in the 1970s (space age/organic design style). The piece stands out for its slender line (45 cm long) and the chromatic depth of its deep blue core wrapped in thick transparent crystal, which creates delicate aquamarine refractions and intense visual transparency.
details and specifications:
type: sculptural centerpiece / artistic empty pockets
subject / style: shuttle-shaped silhouette with slender tips – space age style / organic design / modernism
attribution / origin: attributable to murano glass factory (venice, italy)
materials / technique: solid murano glass, freehand crafted using the sommerso technique (blue and clear crystal)
period: attributable to the 1970s (estimated date)
dimensions (w x d x h): 45 x 9.5 x 15 cm
condition:
good original vintage condition. The glass structure is intact, free of chips or cracks. It shows slight, natural signs of aging on the surface, as well as the characteristic, natural textures and air bubbles within the glass paste, typical of handcrafted glass in a period furnace.
