This Modernist Octagonal Hand-Blown Murano Glass Box in blackened garnet is a breathtaking example of Italian artistry and innovation. Crafted in Murano, Italy, during the 21st century, this piece beautifully blends geometric elegance with the timeless tradition of Venetian glassmaking. The octagonal shape sets it apart as a modern design statement, marrying bold angularity with the delicate beauty of hand-blown glass.

The glass is rendered in a blackened garnet hue, a deep, rich color that shifts between dark crimson and near black depending on the light. This dramatic tone has a resonant quality, creating a striking interplay of depth and shadow. The color evokes a sense of luxury and intrigue, giving the piece a commanding presence whether used for utility or as a display item.

The box is accented with polished nickel fittings, which complement the dark, moody hues of the glass with a bright, reflective surface. The cool metallic sheen of the nickel adds a contemporary edge, balancing the warmth of the garnet tones. Meticulously crafted to ensure both durability and aesthetic harmony, the polished nickel highlights the clean lines and octagonal geometry of the design. Styling beautifully in a wide array of spaces and settings, from Mid-Century Modernist to Contemporary and Minimal Interiors. In Excellent Condition.
