Murano Italian Venetian Glass Vase, Gold Leaf and Enamel Floral Overlay

This is a tall, cylindrical Murano-style art glass vase, likely of Venetian origin, dating to the mid-to-late 20th century. The piece is constructed from opaque white (latte) glass, which provides a clean base for the ornate surface decorations. The exterior features heavy application of 24K gold leaf or gold gilding, covering a significant portion of the body in a scalloped, shield-like pattern. Within and surrounding the gold regions are hand-painted enamel floral motifs, often referred to as 'Tre Fuochi' (Three Fires) technique. These raised floral blossoms are rendered in shades of white, pale green, and pink, exhibiting high relief texture. The central body features a diamond-lattice or 'reticello' window effect where the white glass peals through, framed by elaborate gold scrolls and filigree. The vase stands on a slightly flared, gold-rimmed pedestal base and terminates in a matching wide, flared gold rim at the neck. The craftsmanship is indicative of high-quality Italian art glass, requiring multiple firings to set the different layers of enamel and gold. Condition appears excellent with no visible chips or cracks, and the gilding remains vibrant with minimal rubbing, suggesting it has been well-preserved in a display environment.
