Authentic mid-century fine art glass vase, hand-blown on the island of Murano, Italy (c. 1950s-1960s).

Mastered using the historic Mezza Filigrana technique, meticulously twisting individual opaque white (lattimo), aqua blue, and chartreuse glass canes into a seamless spiral.

Design: Bold space-age hourglass silhouette measuring 28.5 cm tall by 15 cm wide, designed to capture and refract light beautifully through its ribboned pinwheel interior.

Condition: Pristine vintage condition with a smooth, polished base; features an authentic elongated furnace air bubble trapped between the glass canes during the hand-stretching process.
