Exceptional monumental vase in solid blown glass, handcrafted (a mano volante), by Fratelli Toso under the artistic direction of Ermanno Toso (circa 1955ā1965). Silhouette and architecture: Tall body with very thick walls, animated by soft ribs. The neck expands into a polylobed rim with five irregular lobes, while the massive base features three pinched lateral protrusions (pinzato) forming clear and green crystal wings. Complex Sommerso stratification: Bicolored core transitioning from honey amber yellow to amethyst purple at the neck, enveloped at the base by absinthe green glass, all encapsulated in a thick wall of crystal with a high refractive index. Bullicante decoration: The thickness of the material traps a double network of controlled air bubbles, between fine bubbles stretched along the body and dense bubbling at the heart of the base. Finish and dimensions: Flat base ground and polished with a wheel. Height of 32 cm, maximum width of 15 cm, weighing 2.146 kg. Condition: Excellent state of preservation, beautiful shine, no cracks or chips, usage scratches under the base. š¦ SHIPPING: Ultra-secure custom packaging. Hand delivery possible.
