A fabulous piece of gorgeous Murano glass, made by Cristallo Venezia CCC, circa 1960s.
This particular centrepiece, in its glorious aubergine and cyan blue pairing, is featured in a stretched, basket style. The colours are layered in clear glass, creating this gorgeous combination of colour.
It's in great to excellent vintage condition too. There is no wear that we can see, however there is what looks to be a ground down corner post manufacturing, as per the last picture.
Some light scratches on the base, commensurate with age, and then of course bubbles in the glass, also from the manufacturing process.
Measuring 25cm (10") tall, 20cm wide and 19.5cm deep.
It is really quite spectacular!
