The table exemplifies the contemporary evolution of Murano glassmaking, combining traditional hand-blown techniques with a refined architectural presence suited to modern interiors. At the centre is a hand-blown baluster-form stem in deep amethyst Murano glass, executed with torchon-style twists that create a softly undulating, tactile surface. The layered glass catches and refracts light as the viewer moves around the piece, highlighting the technical virtuosity for which the Seguso name is internationally recognised. The richness of the colour and clarity of the glass underscore the skill of the Murano artisans involved in its production. The glass stem is framed by a circular tabletop and base crafted in hardwood and finished in a high-gloss black lacquer. The lacquered surfaces provide a crisp visual contrast to the sculptural glass element while grounding the composition, resulting in a balanced and materially sophisticated design. The table measures approximately 22 in (56 cm) in diameter and 30 in (76 cm) in height. Condition is good overall. There are fine polishing marks and minor surface scratches to the lacquered tabletop, along with some wear to the base, consistent with age and careful use. These do not detract from the visual impact or structural integrity of the piece. Elegant yet distinctive, this Murano glass side table functions equally well as an end table beside a sofa or as an accent table between lounge chairs. Its sculptural form and luminous glass centre make it a compelling statement piece for contemporary, modern, or transitional interiors. This piece has an attribution mark,
