These heavy, sculptural vessels were produced using a traditional Murano technique in which metal foil is applied to a hot glass gather, then fully encased and blown, causing the foil to fracture into organic, stardust-like patterns preserved within the form.

The softly rounded silhouettes and subtle iridescence give these pieces a glowing, almost celestial quality, shifting beautifully with light and angle. Each vase reads as a standalone object, yet together they create a balanced and highly decorative pairing — ideal for a console, mantel, or layered shelving.

A classic example of midcentury Murano-style glass, blending technical craftsmanship with timeless visual impact.
