Carlo Nason for Murano Glassworks Artistic Bottle / Small Decanter, 1980s Murano Glass, original label A highly refined artistic bottle, or small decanter, designed by Carlo Nason for a Murano glassworks in the 1980s, and preserved with its original label. An elegant example of Italian postmodern glass design, the piece embodies the playful sophistication and sculptural freedom that define Murano production of the period. Executed in light blue Murano glass, the bottle is distinguished by its soft, generous body and its extraordinary hand-modeled stopper, composed of stacked geometric elements in differently colored glass. This vertical composition introduces a vibrant architectural rhythm, transforming the object into a refined interplay of balance, color, and form. The dialogue between the rounded silhouette of the vessel and the linear, almost totemic presence of the stopper gives the piece a distinctly artistic character. Both decorative and functional in spirit, it transcends the idea of a simple bottle or decanter to become a true sculptural object. Of particular note, the bottle retains both its original label and Nason’s acid-etched signature at the base, elements that further enhance its authenticity and collectible appeal. Remarkable for its elegance and craftsmanship, this piece is ideally suited for display in a living room, cabinet, or curated interior setting, where it can be appreciated as a work of postmodern Italian artistic glass of great visual charm and technical mastery.
