This green and white Murano-style cased glass vase is pleasing to the eye yet it is dignified in its presentation. It stands 12 inches tall and is footed. As the vase moves upward from the foot, it becomes 3 inches wide at the bowl, then 2 inches wide at the neck, 2 1/2 inches wide, and then 3 3/4 inches at the top, which is ruffled.<p>

The stem of the foot, which is crystal glass, is swirled and applied to the bottom of the bowl of the vase. The glass in the bowl of the vase becomes a darker green. Within the glass is a layer of milk glass which echoes the twisted glass of the foot in a twisted stripe much like a barber's pole or a candy cane. This white striped glass shows through the outer layer of bright green glass for a mesmerizing effect.<p>

I call this Murano style as this has typical Murano glass effects in the execution and aesthetics (cased glass, crystal foot, twisted striping and ruffle) but cannot at this time ascertain the artist. I believe that it is indeed Murano glass of 1940s-1950s vintage.<p>

This would make a fabulous addition to a Murano glass collection!
