About the Item
This stunning, large-scale hand-crafted glass bowl is a true icon of Italian mid-century design, originating from the renowned Murano Collection. Masterfully crafted in Italy around 1950, the piece is inspired by the organic elegance of a Pacific clam shell, capturing its graceful curves and intricate textures with breathtaking precision.
The bowl’s clear glass gleams with crystalline purity, revealing the exceptional artistry that Murano glassmakers are famous for. Its deep interior creates a dramatic effect, offering a sense of depth and fluidity that draws the viewer's eye and invites closer examination. The large, flowing scalloped lip, which echoes the natural edges of a clam shell, adds a bold yet elegant dimension to the piece, making it a captivating focal point in any setting.
The clarity of the glass, coupled with the fluid, organic form, creates an alluring contrast between the smooth interior and the dynamic, textural contours of the scalloped edges. This design makes the piece appear as if it were plucked directly from the depths of the ocean, yet rendered in a way that exudes modern sophistication.
As a centerpiece of the Murano Collection, this bowl embodies the epitome of mid-century Italian craftsmanship, where tradition meets innovation. It is a piece that not only showcases the rich heritage of Venetian glassmaking but also celebrates the era's distinctive aesthetic, marked by clean lines, organic shapes, and dramatic flair.
MWM DESIGN INTERIORS is proud to present this exceptional piece, along with our curated collection of the finest decorative objects, case pieces, furniture, and fine art, all selected for our most discerning clientele. This Murano glass bowl is a striking addition for any collector or connoisseur of refined and timeless design, destined to enhance the beauty and sophistication of any space.
