Beautiful large vintage Murano hand blown copper aventurine and white ribbons Italian art glass bottle shaped flower vase. Created in the manner of designer Dino Martens for Aureliano Toso and the Fratelli Toso company. The piece has a genie bottle, with vertical alternating Filigrana ribbons pattern. The copper aventurine flecks shimmer in any light. The inside of the neck shows signs of wear, which could mean it has a stopper at one point (see the top view photos). Mentioned for accuracy. Would make a great centerpiece for your table, credenza or console. Fill it with flowers or display it as a sculptural element in any room. Midcentury era. Measures 12" tall x 5 5/8" wide.
