This Scavo yellow Murano glass modernist bottle by Alfredo Barbini is an extraordinary example of contemporary glass art, marrying innovation with the tradition of the renowned Murano glass art. It can also be reused as a vase, is in perfect condition and is signed with acid on the bottom. Crafted by the skilled hands of Alfredo Barbini, a master glassmaker renowned for his innovative techniques and avant-garde designs, this vase embodies the spirit of modernism with its clean lines and geometric shape. The striking yellow and white excavated glass, a technique pioneered by Barbini, gives the vase a distinctive appearance reminiscent of ancient artefacts unearthed from archaeological sites. The excavation effect, achieved through a special acid treatment process, creates a textured, weathered surface that adds depth and character to the glass. The square bottle shape of the vase further enhances its modernist appeal, offering a contemporary twist to traditional vase shapes. Its sleek silhouette and vibrant colour make it a versatile piece that suits a variety of interior styles, from minimalist to eclectic. Whether displayed alone as a bottle or used to display a lively bouquet of flowers, Alfredo Barbini's modernist yellow Murano glass square bottle vase is sure to attract attention and admiration due to its exquisite workmanship and striking beauty.
