Mid-Century Murano Glass Jug

Introduction

Mid-century Europe’s keen appetite for colour was felt in workshops of all specialities the most apparent being those of studio glass, of which Italy (and more specifically, Murano) was firmly at the forefront. Bright, fresh and modern was the brief, communicated through artisanal techniques such as macchia, where coloured glass chips are fused onto the exterior layer to create a speckled effect. See how beautifully it plays out on this jug. Please note, this item is a truly original vintage piece with slight imperfections and distinctive characteristics that add to its charm and celebrate its unique history.
