Tall Succulent plant, Murano Aquamarine glass
About the Item
Exceptional Tall Murano glass cactus, flowering, in vivid aquamarine color.
The idea of creating glass accessories of succulent plants in a pot is commonly attributed to Napoleone Martinuzzi. It became part of many makers collections like Seguso and Vamsa.
Martinuzzi introduced this serie of succulent plants designs in the 1930s, which were produced under various labels, including Venini, Zecchin, Seguso, Pauly, and VAMSA Furnace. One of the skilled masters who replicated his creations was the young Alfredo Barbini.
This object lacks labels, signature, and information about its origin and decade of production. It is attributed based on its style and exceptional craftsmanship, and its beauty is the primary criterion for evaluation.
