Antique and rare small Italian Murano glass vase, Pulegoso Arlecchino model, attributed to the famous glass designer Dino Martens for the Aureliano Toso factory.

It dates from the 1960s and is distinguished by its work in blown glass with microbubbles and its polychrome inclusions.

This vase has an elegant, slender teardrop shape, with a gradually narrowing ovoid body, a narrow cylindrical neck, and a small circular opening.
It is made of transparent blown glass using the so-called pulegoso technique, characterized by a multitude of tiny air bubbles trapped in the material, creating a granite and sparkling effect.
Its Arlecchino decoration is composed of small colored glass plates fused into the material, distributed irregularly over the entire surface.
These inclusions feature abstract geometric shapes, in shades of green, yellow and red, some tending towards pink.

The contrast between the transparency of the bubbled glass and the bright colors of the inclusions gives this piece a luminous and particularly decorative character.

Its aesthetic is characteristic of mid-20th century Italian design, combining traditional glassmaking skills with modernist artistic research.

This small vase is a beautiful collector's item for lovers of Murano glass, Italian design and vintage decorative objects.
