About the Item

This striking Murano glass centerpiece dates from the 1960s and is attributed to Venini. The piece is executed in a rich purple glass, overlaid with a transparent exterior featuring an intricate spiderweb-like applied glass decoration. This surface treatment creates depth, texture, and a dynamic interaction with light. The sculptural, low-profile form and expressive use of color are characteristic of mid-century Murano glass design, a period defined by experimentation, modern silhouettes, and refined craftsmanship. The applied clear glass decoration enhances the organic shape while emphasizing the technical skill involved in its creation. Both sculptural and decorative, this centerpiece serves as a strong statement object and a fine example of Italian Murano glass from the mid-20th century.
