Gucci Tom Ford Era Venini Flagship Decor. Very Rare. Maybe Only One Made. For Sale

A rare, historic item from my private collection and was requested formal assistance from Gucci curators in verifying its documentation within the house's archival registry. I am the original owner of a remarkably substantial Gucci Home art glass vessel purchased directly from a flagship Gucci boutique in the late 1990s (circa 1999) during Tom Ford's tenure as Creative Director. The original retail purchase price was $1,555. While I am aware that commercial variants of this banded Murano glassware line were distributed in signature ruby red and emerald green colorways, this particular piece appears to be entirely undocumented. It features a unique, deep amber/topaz core layered with heavy, contrasting opaque black bands. Given its exceptional physical properties and unique color profile, I believe this may be a one-of-one master prototype, a private VIP commission, or a custom flagship store architectural display piece.
