The art glass piece captures the freeform elegance and chromatic poetry of Murano’s avant-garde glassmaking. Standing tall on a sinuous stem that spirals delicately upward, the piece features a fluidly ruffled rim and a bowl bursting with internal swirls of amber, cobalt, crimson, and gold — as if a nebula were captured within crystal.
Its transparent body and asymmetric lip lend the vessel a sense of spontaneous motion, while the interplay of color evokes sunrise light diffused through water. This goblet-like sculpture bridges the line between function and abstraction, embodying the artistry and experimentation that defined mid-century Venetian glass studios.
