Heavy Murano Style Art Glass Vase Amber White Ruffle Handkerchief
A substantial and tactile Murano-style art glass vase in amber and white, its form combining a voluminous lower body with a dramatically ruffled and folded upper rim in the tradition of the Venetian handkerchief vase. The amber and white colour combination is warm and rich, the glass itself heavy and satisfying to the touch. The handkerchief or ruffle-rim form, pioneered by Venini in the 1940s, became a defining motif of mid-century art glass.
