Description: This rare form in the Cordonato d'Oro (golden ropes) line by Barovier is done in amethyst glass swimming in gold (aventurine). Darker at the bottom portion as it is thicker. 7+"H x about 6"W across the lower part.The bullicante (controlled bubbles) addition to the 'ropes' provides an extra dimension. This piece is very light-sensitive as one can see in the photos.Shape is like one of those squat ribbed squash with a cone on top. Each of the 12 ribs ends at the mouthwith a slight scallop; a bit more refined in design than the larger one we also have listed in gold saturated rock crystal clear. This is a jewel in pristine condition with no issues, not even movement markings on the polished flat applied clear pedestal-type bottom with a 1/2 dollar sized, scooped pontil mark in the middle, and about half of the vintage, red-trimmed white label was one used mid-century. This is a well-documented piece with its exorbitant use of all-over gold, concentrated on the ribs adorned with gold bubbles in a grid pattern.We believe blue is the rarest color, followed by amethyst, red, and salmon/pink. Clear is used in the ashtrays, bowls and little knick-knacks, as well as the vases. Also rare are the white opalescent (pearlescent) pieces seen in a few vases. We have one to list next week.
