About the Item

An incredible Italian mid-century stylized art glass vase with a tentacle or hand formed top made in Murano. The heavily made clear glass vase stands on a narrow round shaped base with vertical ribbing around the body extending like an arm to a finger shaped tentacle top of varying lengths. The vase has a purple tinted glass sommerso interior and extending into the raised tentacles. The hand-blown vase has a polished recessed pontil mark to the base and is not signed. An absolutely stunning vase and a very reluctant sale! In good condition with natural wear to the base associated with age and use. Provenance: Acquired from the UK Art Market
