High Murano glass vase sculpture from the 1960s, illustrating the absolute mastery of the Sommerso technique (submerged glass). This 2.8 kg vase features a helicoidal silhouette of great technical complexity. The master glassmaker first shaped a solid core of fuchsia pink glass, which was then immersed in a bath of molten crystal to encase it in a thick protective and transparent layer (Sommerso). The spectacular twist (spiral twist) was achieved entirely while hot: the glassmaker grasped the glowing mass with forging tongs and applied a kinetic rotational movement to twist the structure while maintaining the integrity of the light and the thickness of the walls. Sumptuous craftsmanship, total absence of veil, impeccable optical clarity. Dimensions: Height 28 cm|Width 12.5 cm|Weight 2.41 kg. 📦 ULTRA-SECURE SHIPPING: The packaging of art glass requires rigorous expertise. The vase will travel in a custom cocoon (multi-layer bubble wrap, high-density foam padding, and double rigid cardboard). Peaceful international purchase.
