About the Item

This exquisite sculptural glass centerpiece by Beatrice Tesdorf embodies the essence of mid-century Italian-inspired glass design. The elongated form, crafted in fiery tones of orange and ruby red, glows with dynamic transparency achieved through the Sommerso (submerged glass) technique — a hallmark of Murano tradition. The sleek, canoe-like silhouette gracefully balances color and form, making it as much a work of art as a functional vessel. Light refracts through the dual layers of glass, shifting from deep red to warm amber depending on the angle and intensity of illumination. The result is a piece that captures both fluidity and permanence — an ideal focal point for a credenza, dining table, or console. Condition Excellent vintage condition, with minor surface wear consistent with age. There's a minor chip on one side. Retains original maker’s label underneath reading “Beatrice Tesdorf.” Artist Note Beatrice Tesdorf’s works are celebrated for their bold use of color and sculptural clarity, often bridging the aesthetics of Scandinavian and Italian modernist glass movements. Her pieces from the 1960s and 1970s remain highly sought after for their craftsmanship and contemporary elegance.
