Barovier & Toso Italy, c. 1956 Opaque white glass interior with polychrome cane exterior 9” h, 5 ¾” w (23, 14.5 cm)
The name Ercole Barovier piques the interest of Murano glass collectors worldwide, and his modern designs are regarded as some of the finest post-war examples of art glass. This vase features a mottled opaque white interior with various cane styles and colors covering the exterior. A relatively scarce series from Barovier & Toso dating to 1956.
Good condition. Tool marks and tiny flaws within the glass surface in a few areas consistent with the production of this decor type. Very minor and light scratches to the body.
