Striking vintage Italian solifleur vase / sculptural object, attributed to **Claude Cuny for Cassetti Firenze**. The piece is made from exceptionally thick, heavy clear glass with dark decorative inclusions and a geometric metal appliqué mounted along one side. The metal element is marked **“800”** and bears the **“Claude Cuny”** signature together with an additional small hallmark. The 800 mark is consistent with Italian 800 silver.
