Italian Murano “Ice Glass” Cylinder Vase

A fine modernist and heavy Murano cylinder vase in a fusion of red, blue and white, employing the 'Ice Glass' technique of glass rendering. The Ice Glass technique creates a textured, crystalline surface on the glass, the resembles cracked ice. This effect is achieved by rapidly cooling the molten glass, causing the surface to crackle while the interior remains smooth. This resulting 'ice' texture, adds a unique tactile quality and visual interest to the glass, making it an eye-catching decorative piece to display. The vase also still carries its original Murano label. A stunning example of hand-blown glass art craftsmanship!!
