Ma-Gu-Se - Vase - Murano sommerso in ruby red and amber

Three kilos of glass in thirty centimeters: this Murano vase by Ma-Gu-Se is cut from a thick block of sommerso. A ruby-red core floats in a layer of amber, trapped in clear glass. Long facets in the glass let the ruby red break differently with every turn of the vase. Mid-Century Murano, with the original label still on the wall. In transmitted light it becomes a red column of light. Prefer not to wait? This piece is also available directly for purchase via Buy now. Description: A long, multi-faceted prism that widens upward and downward into facets. Each facet is cut and polished, and the edges run cleanly from rim to foot. The glass contains three layers. Around the narrow hollow sits a ruby-red core, around it a thin amber layer that glows golden at the base, and outside a thick clear mantle. The base is solid clear glass, also facet-cut. The weight tells how this was made: an almost solid block of glass with a small hollow inside, not blown walls. The diamond-shaped gold foil label remains on the wall. About the maker: Vetri molati means cut glass. In the sixties Murano workshops such as Mandruzzato, Campanella, and Gino Fort carved such sommerso blocks into facet vases, each under its own label. Ma-Gu-Se is the label of Maguse Cristalli in Murano (attrib.): that name is engraved beneath many sommerso vases, also facet-cut. In the interior: On a south-facing windowsill the vase catches the afternoon light; the ruby red glows from within, like a lamp.

Light signs of use appropriate to age. Small air bubbles in the glass are production-related. The label is complete; the red ink is largely worn away, the letters remain in relief.
