This stunning vintage Italian opaline glass vase is a masterful example of 1970s mid-century design. Produced by the renowned Opaline Florence glassworks in the Empoli region, this piece beautifully embodies the sophisticated, minimalist aesthetic of Murano masters like Carlo Moretti.
The vase features a striking "Op Art" swirl pattern of deep marbled brown inclusions over a crisp white opaline body. Its graceful, bulbous silhouette is highlighted by a transparent glass handle, showcasing the high-quality craftsmanship typical of the era. The bold contrast of earthy tones and modern form makes it a perfect "statement piece" for Mid-Century Modern, Boho, or Eclectic interiors. This collectible art glass object remains in excellent vintage condition, with no chips, cracks, or repairs. Please review photos, as they are an integral part of the description.
