Candese Murano Glass Blue Ribbons Vase

Murano glass, originating from the Venetian island of Murano in the 13th century, is famed for its exceptional craftsmanship and vibrant colors. This exquisite glass, including the renowned Candese Murano glass, is made by melting silica with soda and lime, then adding various minerals to achieve stunning hues. Historically, Murano glassmakers, using techniques like blowing, molding, and layering, closely guarded their secrets to maintain Venice's dominance in the glassmaking industry. This beautifully preserved mid-century Candese Murano blue ribbons vase dates from the 1950s to 1960s.
