An eye-catching signed Italian studio art glass sculpture by De Simo, dating to circa 1990. This striking contemporary piece features a satin-frosted exterior punctuated by polished circular windows that reveal the rich cobalt blue glass beneath. Rising from the teardrop-form body is a dramatic amethyst-toned cone, creating a bold architectural silhouette.
Unlike many De Simo designs, this example is a solid sculptural artwork rather than a vessel, showcasing the maker's mastery of colour, light and optical effects. The contrast between the frosted finish and the polished openings produces a captivating interplay of transparency and reflection from every angle.
Signed and numbered to the base: De Simo RG.3.016.90.
Condition: Very good vintage condition with minor surface wear consistent with age and display.
Dimensions: Approx. 23cm high
Weight: Approx. 1.75kg
A substantial and highly decorative example of late 20th-century Italian art glass, ideal for collectors of Murano and contemporary studio glass.
