Murano Vintage Mandruzzato Diamond Faceted Geode Bowl Sommerso Blue, Green
By Alessandro Mandruzzato
Located in North Miami, FL
This gorgeous gem of an Italian hand blown Murano bowl by Alessandro Mandruzzato is diamond faceted surround in Sommerso colors in geode form. The flat top is polished and the shape is oval.
