Mid-Century Blown Bubble Glass Vase in Emerald Green

This is a hand-blown decorative glass vase featuring a vibrant emerald green body set upon a contrasting clear glass pedestal base. The body of the vessel displays a distinct bulbed silhouette with a wide, flared rim and molded vertical ribbing that provides both texture and structural rhythm. A defining characteristic is the 'bullicante' or seeded glass technique, which has intentionally introduced thousands of uniform small air bubbles throughout the green glass to create a sparkling, effervescent effect. The construction appears to be a two-piece hand-blown assembly where the green vessel is heat-joined to the solid clear foot. The glass possesses a heavy, substantial quality indicative of mid-20th-century craftsmanship, likely originating from the 1960s or 1970s. While no maker's marks are visible in the photograph, the style and execution are consistent with art glass produced in regions like Empoli, Italy, or by American manufacturers such as Blenko. The piece appears to be in excellent condition with no visible chips, cracks, or significant surface scratches, maintaining a high gloss finish and clear transparency in the foot.
