Description
A vase in light amber blown glass with optically ribbed soffiato decoration, executed by Compagnia di Venezia e Murano (C.V.M.) and distributed by Pauly & Co, the Venetian glass merchant on Piazza San Marco, circa 1935. The piece was originally fitted with the Pauly & Co distribution label and the handwritten model number 25 92620.
The soffiato technique – literally « blown » – describes the Murano glassmaking process in which the molten glass is blown into a ribbed mould, producing the regular vertical ribbing visible on the bowl. The piece is in the stile veneziano neoclassical revival vocabulary that dominated Murano production in the interwar period, with the trumpet-form bowl raised on a baluster stem and disc foot.
Dimensions: H 40 cm.
Materials: Light amber blown glass, optically ribbed (soffiato).
Condition: Very good – thin walls preserved without damage; the original Pauly & Co paper label is no longer physically attached but is recorded in the auction provenance.
