This vase reflects the design world’s love affair with maximalist texture in the post-war years of the 20th century, an infatuation few glassmakers exemplify more than Ercole Barovier. With this vase, the legendary Murano maker creates an almost checkerboard array of indentations across the glass, an effect that, when coupled with the objet’s height, is reminiscent of a mid-century skyscraper. Please note, this item is a truly original vintage piece with slight imperfections and distinctive characteristics that add to its charm and celebrate its unique history.
