About the Item
This iridescent Murano-style glass vase, made in Italy around the 1970s, exemplifies the artistry and technical finesse associated with Italian studio glass. Its distinctive freeform shape echoes a double truncated cone, rendered in thick, luminous glass. Inside, a striking matrix of bubbles—created through the Efeso bubble technique—interacts beautifully with the vase’s shimmering oil-slick iridescence, reminiscent of designs by Ercole Barovier.
Small applied glass buttons punctuate either side of the vase, adding a sculptural element and tactile intrigue. The interplay of vivid color reflections and the dynamic bubble structure gives this piece a vivid presence under changing light.
Standing 19 cm high with a diameter of 10 cm, it remains in very good vintage condition, bearing only minor superficial marks on its rough-polished base, consistent with age and use. While the maker is unknown, the quality suggests a skilled artisan steeped in the traditions of Murano glassmaking.
A captivating piece for collectors of vintage art glass or those seeking a unique statement object, this vase offers a vibrant touch of mid-century Italian elegance.

Smoked Glass Bud Vase by Arthur Percy for Gullaskruf, Sweden, Mid-20th Century
By Gullaskruf, Arthur Percy
Located in Glasgow, GB
A mid-century smoked glass bud vase by Arthur Percy for Gullaskruf Glasbruk, Sweden, circa 1950s–60s. This modernist solifleur vase is crafted in warm brown glass with a soft translucence, featuring a spherical base and elongated tapering neck—an elegant study in proportion and restraint typical of Scandinavian glass design from the period.
Arthur Percy, a pivotal figure in 20th-century Swedish decorative arts, served as artistic director of Gullaskruf from 1952 and brought a refined, architectural sensibility to the glassworks’ production. His solifleur vases, such as this example, were designed not only to function as stem vases but also to sit sculpturally within minimalist interiors—characteristic of the era’s design ethos.
Standing approximately 18 cm tall and 10 cm in diameter, this vintage Swedish vase is a collectible example of mid-century modern glassware. In very good condition with no chips or cracks; minor surface wear to the base consistent with age and gentle use.
A considered addition to any collection of Scandinavian glass or modernist decorative objects.
