Vintage Studio Art Glass Vase – Blue Murano Style

A Breath of Murano, Captured in Glass

Hand-blown in the Murano tradition, this striking studio art glass vase is a singular expression of mid-century Italian glassmaking at its most exuberant. The abstract swirl and spotted pattern — achieved through the demanding technique of cased glass — creates a depth of colour and movement that no two pieces could ever replicate. Blues shift and dance within the glass, punctuated by multicoloured inclusions that catch the light with every turn.

Produced in Italy in the 1970s–80s, this is a unique studio piece — handmade, original, and bearing the honest character of individual craft. The glossy, smooth finish and waterproof construction speak to the quality of its making, while the retro abstract aesthetic places it firmly within the canon of Mid Century decorative art.

A vase that is as much sculpture as vessel — equally at home on a mantle, a shelf, or as the centrepiece of a considered interior.
