Italian Rectangular Handblown Glass Bowl by Erwin Walter Burger for Fontana Arte, 1950s
An Italian Modern bowl designed by Erwin Walter Burger for Fontana Arte in the 1950s, where sculptural form is defined through the clarity and weight of handblown glass. Its rectangular silhouette is softened by gently curved edges, creating a sense of movement despite its solid presence.
Rendered in a turquoise hue, the thick glass catches and refracts light, allowing the color to shift throughout the day. Whether displayed as a centerpiece or left empty as an object in its own right, it brings a sense of geometry and luminosity to the surrounding space.
