About the Item

Art Deco Murano Scavo Roman Revival Glass Amphora with Applied Handles and Raspberry Prunts Murano Art Deco Scavo Glass Amphora with Barbed Handles Raspberry Prunts, Art Deco Murano Archaeological Revival Vase with Applied Handles, Amber Scavo Finish A remarkable Art Deco Murano Art Glass Vase in the Roman Revival tradition, featuring a striking scavo (archaeological) surface finish that gives the vessel the appearance of an ancient amphora unearthed from antiquity. This intentionally weathered, excavated texture is a signature technique developed by Murano glass masters in the early 20th century and closely associated with the experimental work of Barovier Toso and other avant-garde Venetian furnaces. Hand-blown in a deep amber-brown glass, the vase showcases sculptural applied handles with spiked or barbed detailing, along with multiple raspberry prunts—each individually hot-worked and tooled by hand. These tactile decorative elements are hallmarks of early Murano Archaeological Revival design, inspired by Roman glassware forms and classical Mediterranean vessels. The naturally mottled coloration, mineral-like surface deposits, and subtle iridescence enhance the vase’s ancient aesthetic. Together, these features create a powerful sculptural presence that elevates the piece beyond typical decorative glass. This Art Deco Murano Art Glass Vase makes a commanding statement in interiors ranging from Classical Revival to Modernist and contemporary design. Dimensions: Height: 15 in. (38.1 cm) Diameter: 9.75 in. (24.8 cm) A rare and evocative example of Art Deco Murano Archaeological Revival glass, with fully applied handles, raspberry prunts, and a museum-grade scavo finish. This Murano Art Glass Vase offers exceptional craftsmanship, historical inspiration, and dramatic visual impact.
