Table lamp by Aldo Nason

Murano blown glass lamp base by Aldo Nason, AVeM (Arte Vetreria Muranese) – Murano, Italy, circa 1960.
The elongated, gently pear-shaped form highlights a refined treatment of material and surface. The glass, worked in a thick translucent mass, displays an iridescent ground with subtle tonal variations ranging from deep blue to greenish-gold, punctuated by circular inclusions evoking organic or mineral motifs.
The piece reflects Aldo Nason’s exploration during the 1960s of texture, colour, and depth, within the continuity of post-war Murano glass innovation.
