About the Item

Striking Murano glass sculptural plate, Italy, circa 1970s. This large decorative work is executed in blown glass with a bold optical spiral design in smoky blue and black, creating a dynamic visual effect that shifts with light and perspective. Both decorative and sculptural, the plate demonstrates the technical mastery and artistic innovation that defined mid-century Murano glass. Presented on a custom metal stand, the piece reaches a total height of 57 cm, transforming it into a true sculptural object rather than a simple decorative dish. With its 39 cm diameter and hypnotic spiral motif, it recalls the language of Op-Art and the modernist aesthetic of Italian design in the 1960s and 1970s. Large Murano glass plates of this scale and presence are rare on the market, making this an exceptional opportunity for collectors of 20th-century Italian decorative arts and lovers of Murano optical glass. Perfect as a centerpiece or as a statement work within an interior.
