Large Mid Century Mottled Art Glass Vase Amber Orange Murano Style
A striking large mid-century art glass vase, hand-blown in warm amber, honey, and rust tones with an all-over mottled pattern that gives depth and movement from every angle. The vase has a confident, generous scale with softly rounded shoulders and a slightly flared neck. The colouring intensifies toward the base, creating a grounded, glowing effect when light passes through the glass. The surface shows subtle variations and internal movement typical of hand-blown glass rather than moulded production. This style is strongly associated with Italian glassmaking of the 1950s-60s, particularly Murano workshops producing decorative statement pieces for export.
A substantial interior piece that holds its own without flowers, though it will take dramatic stems beautifully. Origin: Italian style, Murano tradition.
Colour: Amber, honey, rust red mottling. The poet in me would say. This is not a vase that whispers. It holds the colours of autumn leaves pressed into glass, Thick with warmth, heavy with presence.
The sort of piece that changes a room simply by standing there. You don't arrange it. You make space for it.
