Large 15" 6lb Bullicante Amber vase A magnificent example of mid-century Venetian craftsmanship: a 15-inch tall, heavy-gauge Murano Bullicante vase in a rich honey-amber hue.
This "heavy hitter" weighs in at a substantial 6 lbs, showcasing the density and quality expected from high-end Italian glass houses such as Seguso or Barovier & Toso.
The vase features the celebrated Bullicante (controlled bubble) technique, with a precise grid of air pockets captured within the thick glass walls. A striking "snake" coil (serpente) is hand-applied, spiraling gracefully around the neck and terminating in a clean, tapered finish.
The base reveals a deep, recessed, and authentic rough-polished pontil mark—a definitive hallmark of hand-blown Murano production.
This piece is in excellent vintage condition. It is structurally sound with no chips or cracks.
The neck features beautiful vertical "stretch seeds" and internal tooling marks original to the mouth-blown process, which serve as proof of its handmade origin.
Very light, age-appropriate shelf wear on the base.
Specifications Origin: Murano, Italy (Venetian) Technique: Bullicante / Hand-Applied Coil Color. Recessed, rough-polished pontil No chips, cracks, or repairs. The rim is smooth and original.
Light, age-appropriate shelf wear to the polished base, which acts as a testament to its significant weight and authenticity. Will be professionally packed and shipped with UPS.
