A rare and spectacular collector's item: an elegant Murano glass soliflore vase (1960s), still bearing its precious original metallic label "Murano". This sculptural piece perfectly illustrates the virtuosity of the Venetian Sommerso technique (submerged glass). A delicate drop of deep plum-tinted glass is masterfully encapsulated within a thick wall of light turquoise blue glass, offering an absolute play of transparency and clean organic lines. The secret of this piece (Ouraline): The main appeal of this vase lies in its chemical composition. It is an authentic "Uranium Glass" (ouraline). While daylight enhances its blue/plum contrasts, exposure to black light (UV) reveals an intense and spectacular fluorescent green. A fascinating optical characteristic, highly prized by collectors worldwide. Dimensions and Weight: Height: 24 cm. Maximum width (belly): 8 cm. Weight: 709 g. Condition: Perfect vintage condition. The optical clarity is immaculate: no cracks, no chips, and no internal cloudiness. Microscopic friction scratches under the ground base authenticate its 50 years of age. Shipping will be handled with extreme care. A professional ultra-secure packaging (double boxing technique and dense cushioning) will ensure safe international transport.
