A striking Murano glass ashtray-sculpture shaped as a Venetian gondola, dating from the 1950s–60s. Hand-blown in clear crystal glass with a rich ruby-red core, the piece captures the fluid elegance and movement of the iconic gondola form.
The elongated silhouette rests on a sculpted glass base, while applied details along the sides add texture and rhythm, echoing waves and ornamental elements of traditional Venetian craftsmanship. Both sculptural and functional, this object blurs the line between decorative art and design, making it equally compelling as a centerpiece or a collector’s display piece.
An authentic example of mid-century Murano artistry — expressive, refined, and unmistakably Italian.
