A deep cobalt blue core is encased within a translucent layer of pale blue glass, creating the visual depth and tonal layering typical of seguso’s mid-century murano work. The body curves gracefully into a coiled tail, supported by two applied leaf-form feet in clear glass. The flared mouth, recalling a jack-in-the-pulpit bloom, rises asymmetrically—one side sweeping upward into a pointed tip, the other splaying wide to reveal the submerged colour within. Measuring 16 cm high, 14.5 cm wide and 10.5 cm deep, this sculptural italian art glass vase is equally suited to standalone display or as part of a curated murano glass collection. A refined decorative accent for collectors of 1950s venetian glass or sommerso pieces. In very good vintage condition, with no chips or cracks. Minor surface wear to the polished base, consistent with age. 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
