Exceptional piece by the Venetian master glassmaker Archimede Seguso, this goblet vase in Murano glass (1950s-60s) embodies the absolute elegance of Mid-Century design. Designed to enhance light, this work is the result of exceptional hot work. The glass is mass-tinted in a vibrant amethyst pink, with no internal encapsulation. It is the impressive thickness of the material that sculpts a natural chromatic gradient through pure light refraction. A sign of extreme technical mastery, the bullicante technique here deploys a network of perfectly ordered and aligned bubbles in a rigorous geometric spiral, showcasing the pinnacle of Venetian glass art. The quality of the manufacture is confirmed at the base, which features a remarkably ground and polished pontil. Dimensions and Weight: Height: 15 cm. Width at the neck: 13.5 cm. Width at the base: 7.5 cm. Glass thickness: 1 cm. Weight: 1.6 kg. The object is in excellent vintage condition. It shows no chips or cracks. Very fine usage scratches attest to its authenticity and era. Always handled with strict white cotton gloves during cataloguing, it has retained its original shine and perfect brilliance. The packaging will be extremely careful, ultra-secure (double boxing technique) and generously overprotected to ensure transport without any risk for this heavy glass.
