This large and rare mid-century Sacvo vase by Seguso Vetri d’Arte (Murano) is a striking example of Italian glass artistry at its most refined. Crafted in jade-coloured glass with delicate bubbling throughout, the vase takes the form of an antiquarian amphora, blending classical reference with modern material expression. A bold zig-zag pattern encircles the belly, adding a graphic, ornamental touch that contrasts with the smooth contours of the vessel. Rich in texture and presence, this piece exemplifies Murano’s tradition of innovation and craftsmanship, elevating ancient form through mid-century elegance and technical mastery.
