The object can be attributed to the high-quality Murano production of the 1970s and 1980s, in the style of Formia or Archimede Seguso.

The "Silver Powder" Technique: The feature that makes this object a true gem is the complex production technique. A shower of silver powder is blown into the sapphire/cobalt blue glass paste. This process creates a hypnotic visual effect, similar to a starry sky or the Milky Way: the metallic particles capture the light and reflect it, making the entire vase sparkle.

Architecture and Design: The shape is extremely elegant, inspired by ancient amphorae but revisited with a modern twist:

The Body: A perfect, elongated oval that ends in a narrow neck with a flat edge.

· The Base: The blue body does not rest directly on the ground, but is suspended on a hand-crafted clear crystal pedestal. The clear base also features silver inclusions, creating continuity and lightness.
