Italian Murano glass vase from the 1950s, featuring a striking spherical shape in white and clear glass, created in the style of Tobia Scarpa for Venini. The rounded body is traversed by thin white threads embedded in the glass, arranged in a graphic pattern that follows the curvature of the surface and creates a refined interplay of transparencies.
The wide, slightly flared mouth balances the generous proportions of the body, while the contrast between the clear glass and the white decoration generates variations in light and depth depending on the viewing angle.
The essential geometry, spherical shape, and elegant alternation of clear and white glass recall the sophisticated language of Mid-Century Modern Murano design and the stylistic research associated with Tobia Scarpa and Venini.
The vase is intact and shows no cracks or breaks; there are only minor signs of aging consistent with its age.
