Each piece in my collection is chosen for its craftsmanship, authenticity, and quiet sense of history. I specialise in antique silver, maritime objects, property of a gentleman and late 19th century as well as early 20th century designs, curating items that tell the story of refined leisure and skilled workmanship.
These are objects made to be used, admired, and handed down—each one a small testament to the artistry and precision of its era.

Description
A stunning Icona Murano Sommerso glass vase, hand-crafted on the Venetian island of Murano, Italy during the mid-20th century.
This 16 cm tall faceted vase showcases the exquisite Sommerso (“submerged”) glassmaking technique, in which layers of amber, golden yellow, and clear crystal are fused to create remarkable depth and luminosity.
Every angle captures and reflects light differently, producing an elegant optical effect that shifts with the room’s ambiance.
With original label.
