Opalescent fine blown opaline soliflore

A delicate soliflore in fine, semi-translucent opaline, letting light through with a bluish effect. Blown with great finesse, as evidenced by the irregular air bubbles at its base, it probably dates from the 1950s/60s and is said to be of italian origin, in murano glass, known for its transparency and remarkable lightness compared to french opaline. * appreciated in the 19th century for its elegance and visual softness, opaline adorned many bourgeois and aristocratic homes. Over time, this material has evolved thanks to new, more modern manufacturing techniques. * this soliflore, with slightly bluish reflections and a slender silhouette, is distinguished by its elongated neck and its curved base with geometric lines. Its design is both elegant but also with a resolutely pop/space age touch. It evokes a delicate and romantic visual softness, while displaying a certain pep. * designed to accommodate a single flower, this soliflore once enhanced a dressing table or a fireplace. Today, it stands the test of time and continues to bring a touch of timeless elegance. * 📏 20.2 cm h / 2.8 cm dia opening / 5.9 cm dia base ⚖️ 0.136 g 📦 france 🇫🇷, europe 🇪🇺 & world 🌍 📦 our packages are packed with great care (bubbles, newspapers, package reinforcement, etc.).
