Barbini Murano sculptural vase in clear glass, Italy 1970s

Sculptural Murano glass vase by Barbini, 1970s

This sculptural Murano glass vase by Barbini dates to the 1970s and features a dynamic form with exceptional clarity. Handcrafted in Venice using traditional glassblowing techniques, the vase’s elongated silhouette and subtle curvature highlight Barbini’s refined craftsmanship. Its crystal-clear surface reflects light beautifully, lending an almost liquid presence to the form.

Refined mid-century Italian glass artistry

This piece embodies Venetian sophistication, with its clean lines and organic movement. Though minimal in color, the vase's play of light and form adds expressive volume. It stands alone as a centrepiece or integrates elegantly into curated interior settings, from classic mid-century modern to eclectic contemporary decor.

Murano tradition meets modern sculptural form

The 1970s were a time of experimentation and purity in form for Murano artists, and this vase reflects that perfectly. Barbini’s fluid shaping and impeccable clarity make this a true collector’s object—a timeless work of glass that balances decorative function with sculptural impact.
