MURANO MILLEFIORI & AVENTURINE VASE, ITALY 1950s

Italy 

c. 1950s - 1960s 

A richly layered Murano glass vase showcasing traditional venetian techniques at their most expressive. 

The undulating ruffled rim alternates between opaline white and ruby red, creating a bold, rhythmic silhouette. Within the body, suspended millefiori canes and fine aventurine flecks shimmer beneath the surface, adding depth and movement to the amber toned ground. The controlled scalloped form and applied clear footed elements ground the piece while enhancing its sculptural presence. 

Hand-blown, this example reflects the technical virtuosity and decorative confidence of mid-century Italian glass production.
