Venini

possibly designed by Riccardo Licata

Overall in very good original condition. The color of the vase is accurately shown in the catalogue illustration. The glass is dichroic so presents with a green color when illuminated. The glass with a few minor air bubbles and particulate inclusions inherent in the making and not visually distracting. The surfaces with a few surface scratches consistent with age and gentle use. A strong presence and great scale when viewed in person.
