This striking work of handblown Swedish art crystal, executed in the Murano art glass technique of Bullicante is by the Marcolin brothers for their art glass studio FM Konstglas in Ronneby, Sweden.

Made famous in the 1930s by Archimede Seguso, the Bullicante controlled bubbles technique involves overlaying several layers of air bubbles in a grid pattern within the wall. Crafted in solid crystal, this particular piece features this exquisite technique of delicately encasing a core layer of 24 karat gold. The piece is finished in a clear conical casing of clear Swedish crystal glass.

This stunning piece is timeless in style and brings with it elevated yet glamourous simplicity, the simplicity echoing the Modernist design movement of the period this piece was made. True to the roots of Modernism, there is a focus on combining function with bringing forth the beauty in the natural material.
