This exceptional Murano double-handle vase, hand-blown in Italy circa 1980, exemplifies the finest artistry of Venetian glassmakers. Crafted using the Scavo technique, the vase features a stunning iridescent celadon finish, giving it an earthy yet ethereal quality.

The Scavo technique, derived from the Italian word for "excavation," was developed to mimic the ancient patinas of archaeological artifacts. The surface of this vase carries a delicate texture, accentuating its historical character while maintaining contemporary elegance. The iridescent celadon hue shifts subtly as light dances across the surface, creating a dynamic interplay of color and sheen that enhances its visual allure.

Finished with double handles, the vase is both sculptural and functional, presenting a harmonious balance of form and utility. Its curvaceous profile and finely executed details make it a standout decorative object, embodying the timeless sophistication of Murano glass.

Perfect as a centerpiece display or collector's item, this vase captures the intersection of traditional craftsmanship and innovative design. A superb example of Italian glass artistry, it would complement a wide range of interior styles, from classic to modern. In Excellent Vintage Condition.
