Vintage Finnish Glass Vase by Erkki Vesanto, Signed, Rare Collectible Decorative

About the Item

Murano Glass is a world-famous excellence. Not everyone, though, knows Finnish Glass – an equally refined, and possibly less common niche of blown and moulded vases and sculptures. The present vase is indeed an example of this latter school: designed by Erkki Vesanto, whose signature is clearly legible behind the base, it’s a “Sommerso” grey and clear vase, with a thick vase and a very fine construction. It is extremely well preserved and a wonderful decorative touch for your special interior. Will look great on a coffee table, console or bookshelf. For more rare glass and decorative Mid-Century Modern objects, have a look at our storefront: check us out at Spinzi Milano!
