The glass is densely worked with fine bubbles, creating a smoky, almost granular appearance that becomes increasingly translucent as light passes through it.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe colour is particularly good - somewhere between oxblood, aubergine and deep wine - graduating into a smoky grey towards the heavy base. Its simple form allows the material to take centre stage; viewed from a distance it feels monolithic and architectural, while up close the surface reveals extraordinary depth and texture. A quietly dramatic piece of Italian glass that works equally well as a functional vase or sculptural object. v\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Italy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e c.1970s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterials:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blown glass with dense pulegoso bubble inclusions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAttribution:\u003c\/strong\u003e unmarked.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep plum \/ wine with smoky grey tones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e H23cm x W15cm (top) W9cm (base). \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Excellent vintage condition, with minor surface wear consistent with age.
