A beautifully carved vintage Italian alabaster vase showcasing soft sky-blue veining against creamy white stone. Its compact scale and gently rounded silhouette make it a charming decorative accent, whether displayed with a single dried stem or appreciated as a sculptural object on its own.
Hand carved from genuine Italian alabaster, each face reveals naturally occurring variations in colour and veining, making every angle unique. The polished finish highlights the stone's translucent quality, while subtle mineral inclusions and delicate blue marbling add depth and character.
The base bears a hand-scratched ITALY mark together with production numbers, a marking style commonly found on mid-century Italian export alabaster. Despite its small size, the vase has a pleasing weight and timeless simplicity that suits both traditional and contemporary interiors.
The rim has several small chips consistent with age and use, which are reflected in the price and do not detract from its decorative appeal. The body remains in very good vintage condition with attractive natural veining throughout.
A lovely addition to an alabaster collection, a shelf display, or a quiet corner needing a touch of natural stone.
