Extremely finely detailed, and very rare, Murano glass filigrana (filigree) vase. While the shape of this vase is reminiscent of the "art and design" period of Murano glass in the 1940's and 50's, the fine lines of color and texture are created using a technique that dates all the way back to the 16th century on Murano. This piece is a truly stunning example of how the historical techniques of the Murano glass masters lend themselves to the creation of both functional and beautiful modern pieces. This vase measures 34 centimeters by 20 centimeters; 13.5 inches by 8 inches.
About filigrana (filigree) Murano glass: To create the fine lines of color in this piece, slender rods of transparent and colored glass are laid side-by-side and melted together. The resulting multi-lined sheet of molten glass is then rolled into a cylinder and sculpted into the form desired by the glass master. This vase is soffiato, blown, to create a thin-walled, finely detailed piece.
