Barbini Murano Sculptural Glass Carafe With Stopper, Italy 1970s

1970s Murano sculptural glass carafe with linear detailing

This hand-blown Murano glass carafe from the 1970s is a refined example of Venetian craftsmanship, attributed to Barbini. Featuring a cylindrical silhouette with an elegantly sculpted base and original glass stopper, the piece reveals a subtle interplay of clarity and weight. The carafe’s base is enriched with delicate optic line work, creating a hypnotic visual effect when viewed from different angles.

Minimalist Murano elegance with functional beauty

Designed with a clean, modern form, this sculptural glass decanter blends seamlessly into mid-century and contemporary settings. The original Murano stopper enhances its collectible value while also offering practical use for serving or display. Whether placed on a bar cart or glass shelf, this carafe commands attention through its pure form and artisanal finesse.

Barbini’s signature craftsmanship in Murano blown glass

Barbini’s mastery in controlling clarity and curvature is evident in this piece. The optical spiral lines at the base are a subtle nod to the technical experimentation of 1970s Murano design. A sophisticated vessel that functions equally well as a decorative object or luxury serving piece.
