Thomas Dugan designed this artistic series specifically to emulate the prestigious, high-end Venetian Murano art glass of the Edwardian era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis exceptional cabinet vase features a striking bulbous silhouette that tapers cleanly at the neck before expanding into a dramatic, fire-polished 6-point ruffled mouth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Venetian Frit Technique: The distinguishing feature of this rare line is the exquisite \"frit\" treatment. While the rich amethyst base glass was molten hot, it was rolled in crushed metallic glass fragments (frit) to fuse an intensely encrusted, rough-textured finish across the exterior. The piece was then sprayed with an iridescent finish, creating a breathtaking luster that flashes shades of copper bronze, amber gold, and violet. Because these were hand-shaped and hand-finished after being blown into a mold, every single frit vase features a unique texture and color distribution.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dugan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54215216857456,"sku":"A8","price":145.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1028\/5042\/9296\/files\/wow_a9e61c1a-3ad7-4936-b13c-24a3ee39c06a.jpg?v=1787447996","url":"https:\/\/theflipside.shop\/products\/antique-1905-dugan-venetian-amethyst-frit-iridescent-art-glass-ruffled-vase","provider":"The Flip Side","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
