This 1980s vase showcases the bullicante technique, first developed in Murano a half-century prior. To achieve the textured effect of trapped bubbles, a tool is introduced to the molten glass, creating a controlled pattern of indentations that capture air as the material slowly cools. In the case of this design, added visual cues come courtesy of the wavy rim, evocative of an upside-down view of a handkerchief draped over an unseen object. 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.
