Barbini Sculptural Clear Murano Glass Vase, Italy 1970s

Sculptural Murano glass vase by Barbini in clear finish, 1970s

This sculptural clear Murano glass vase by Barbini, dating to the 1970s, embodies the refined artistry of Venetian glassmaking. The hand-blown form features a bulbous base with an organically split, folded rim—offering a dynamic silhouette that catches and bends light from every angle. Its transparent clarity and fluid geometry make it both a functional object and a statement piece.

Barbini Murano design for minimalist and modern interiors

Whether used as a centrepiece on a dining table or displayed on a shelf, this Italian sculptural vase reflects the minimalist elegance typical of 1970s Murano glass. Its understated design allows it to sit beautifully within both contemporary interiors and mid-century-inspired spaces.

Venetian craftsmanship and timeless appeal

Barbini’s work is celebrated for its balance of form and technique. The vase’s split-mouthed top adds architectural interest, while the rounded base provides a grounded, serene presence—testament to the artisan’s mastery of proportion and clarity in glass.
