Vintage Murano-Style Scavo Crystaline Finish Glass Vase, Organic Freeform

intage hand-blown art glass vase in the Scavo technique — a sandblasted, textured finish developed by Murano glasshouses to evoke the pitted, weathered surface of ancient excavated Roman glass. Soft grayish-sand tones show through the frosted surface, giving the piece an aged, archaeological quality. Organic, asymmetric bulbous form with a freeform pulled and pinched rim, characteristic of mid-century Italian studio glass experimentation. A wonderful sculptural object on its own, or as an unconventional vessel for dried branches or pampas grass. 9" diameter x 8" tall.
