Murano

€ 105,50

Artikelnummer: 00635

Bring a distinctive touch of mid-century Italian glass design to your home with this unusual vintage green satin-finish glass decanter with a contrasting dark spherical stopper.

The rounded body is formed in beautiful frosted or satin green art glass, creating a soft, velvety appearance that contrasts elegantly with the darker glass stopper. Its gently spherical silhouette, slender neck and simple flat rim give the piece a refined sculptural quality.

The dark spherical stopper is the defining feature. Sitting directly above the narrow neck, it creates a strong visual contrast with the lighter green body and gives the bottle an unmistakable mid-century decorative character.

The overall design is reminiscent of vintage Murano and Italian decorative glass, while similar forms were also produced elsewhere in Europe during the mid-20th century.

At 15 cm high without the stopper and approximately 19 cm with it, this is a wonderfully displayable size. The body measures approximately 12 cm in diameter, giving the decanter a rounded, substantial presence despite its relatively compact height.

The combination of satin green glass and the dark spherical stopper makes this an especially attractive decorative object for collectors of vintage Italian art glass, mid-century glassware and unusual decorative bottles.

Condition

The decanter is in vintage condition and has one small defect on the stem of the stopper. The imperfection is barely noticeable in person and is best appreciated in the close-up photographs.

We recommend carefully reviewing the detailed condition photographs before purchase.

A Sculptural Mid-Century Glass Accent

Unlike a conventional clear crystal decanter, this piece has a more decorative and sculptural character. The opaque-looking satin surface softens the green colour, while the rounded body gives the bottle an organic, almost pebble-like appearance.

The dark stopper provides the visual focal point and makes the decanter particularly effective when displayed against a light-coloured background, inside a glass cabinet or alongside other vintage art glass.

It would also make an attractive addition to a collection of Murano glass, European art glass or mid-century decorative objects.

Styling Tips

Display it on a vintage sideboard or console as a standalone sculptural glass object.
Pair it with amber, clear or smoked art glass for an eclectic mid-century display.
Place it against a neutral wall so the satin green finish becomes the focal point.
Style it with vintage Italian ceramics and brass accents for a sophisticated 1950s–1970s-inspired interior.
Display it in a glass cabinet alongside other collectible European art glass.
Use it as a decorative bottle on a bar cart or drinks cabinet.

Collector Appeal

The unusual combination of satin green glass, rounded body and contrasting dark spherical stopper gives this decanter considerable decorative character.

Its form is particularly appealing to collectors searching for vintage Murano- glass, Italian-inspired art glass and mid-century decorative bottles. Its distinctive silhouette and colour combination make it an eye-catching vintage piece in its own right.
