Murano Mandruzzato faceted vintage vase. Green amber sommerso block art glass, retro Italian. Cut flat faces. 1960s Mid century modernist

A beautiful smaller Murano sommerso faceted art glass vase, attributed to and probably by Mandruzzato, Murano, Italy.

It's a vivid green colour, with a subtle amber yellow floating later (sommerso), cased in clear glass. The green is an emerald or malachite green. There are four cut sides, making it a square column shape with flat polished rim and flat polished base. Vintage 1960s/1970s mid-century design - unsure of exact vintage of this example.

It's a small sized 13cm tall x 4.3cm wide. Internally the vase goes 10cm deep. 450g. Excellent condition for the age. One slight rim scratch, see close up photo, and a natural bubble half way up (third photo). I'd give it a 9.5/10. Very displayable, collectable, and a smaller alternative to the usual Murano Mandruzzatos.

If you're after one of these vases for your collection this is a great example - a quality piece, nicely handmade. Perfect for a Mid-century mantelpiece - ideal gift for a collector.
