vintage Murano glass vase, Red White Ruffled Rim Hand-Blown
A compact example of Italian glasswork, vintage Murano glass vase presents red-and-white swirls over a translucent body and a ruffled rim that emphasizes its hand-formed silhouette. The piece stands approximately 12 cm (4.72 inches) high and combines a rounded organic profile with a lively, irregular edge produced by traditional hand-blowing techniques. Light passing through the glass highlights layered coloration and internal movement, making the surface appear to shift with viewing angle and ambient illumination.
The vase is an art glass object in a small, display-friendly scale. Its red swirl vase pattern is built from alternating ribbons of colored glass layered over clear glass, producing a depth that reads differently in direct daylight and under softer indoor light. The rounded body and narrow neck suit a single bloom or a cluster of short-stemmed flowers, functioning well as a small bud vessel or as a sculptural center on a shelf or tabletop. The ruffled edge glass rim adds a tactile, decorative detail that reinforces the mid-century accent and retro display item character of the piece.
Construction and condition notes: the vase is hand blown decor with an asymmetric silhouette indicative of manual shaping and finishing. Surface finish shows the translucence and layered color consistent with authentic glass art from traditional Venetian techniques. The compact size and sturdy base make it appropriate for use in compact interiors or as part of an art-glass collection where colorful home decor and sculptural forms are valued.
Styling and uses:
Care and handling: handle the piece gently and avoid sudden temperature changes. Clean with a soft cloth and mild, lukewarm water; avoid abrasive cleaners or strong chemicals that could affect surface sheen. When displayed near natural light, position the vase so the red-and-white swirls are visible against a neutral backdrop to preserve focus on the coloration and ruffled rim.
