Pink Swirl Murano-Style Art Glass Calla Lily Vase

This item is an organic, hand-blown art glass vase featuring a flared, ruffled rim reminiscent of a Calla Lily or tulip blossom. The piece is constructed from thick glass with a striking pink and white internal swirl, often referred to as 'end-of-day' or 'slag' glass patterns, encased in a clear crystal outer layer (sommerso technique). The color transition moves from a saturated, opaque pink at the base to more translucent, swirling filaments at the rim. The rim is hand-pulled into four distinct, irregular peaks with crimped edges, demonstrating artisan hand-craftsmanship. Based on the organic form and color palette, this piece likely dates to the mid-20th century (circa 1950s-1970s), echoing the style of Murano makers like Seguso or Chalet Glass. The item appears to be in good vintage condition with a high-gloss finish; no visible cracks or deep chips are apparent at the rim. The base likely features a polished pontil mark indicative of hand-blown production. These pieces are valued for their fluid lines and mid-century modern aesthetic, with the quality of the glass layering and the symmetry of the crimped rim serving as primary indicators of craftsmanship.
