Murano glass bird pink art glass from Italy, labeled (11 cm)
An exquisite and charming bird sculpture in hand-cast Murano glass from Italy - a decorative art object that combines playful form with exclusive craftsmanship in pastel pink shades. Product information: - Height: 11 cm - Material: Solid art glass - Finish: Pink body with clear details, original label partially preserved: "Murano Italy". Features: This elegant little bird is an example of Murano glass craftsmanship at its most expressive. The softly shaped body in opaque pink glass contrasts beautifully with the clear, undulating forms of the beak, comb, wings and tail. The expression is both humorous and stylish, and the figurine works equally well as a discreet decoration in a modernist home as a color accent in a vintage-inspired room.
It is heavy in the hand, well-balanced and bears clear traces of being individually hand-cast - each bird is a unique piece. About the maker/designer: The glass is made on the world-famous glass island of Murano outside Venice, known for its art glass since the 13th century. Although the label is partially damaged, it is clear that this is an authentic Murano object, probably made in the 1950s or 60s. The combined technique of colored and clear glass mass is typical of the period, as is the artistic play with bird shapes.
