About this seller
Product description
There are many different types of glass made by master makers on the Venetian island of Murano. From wafer-thin vases to expressive sculptures, massive objects with deep and vibrant hues also represent the great skills of glassblowers. The current tray/bowl is a perfect example of how attractive solid Murano glass can be. This bowl is made of ''Micaceo'' glass, in shades of blue with inlaid silver metallic flakes. The sculpture has a simple and classic ''square'' shape. The piece was originally intended as an ashtray, but it can be used for many more things, for example as a key holder. It can be dated roughly to the mid-1960s, based on the style and colors of the piece. Unsigned, like most pieces from that time. It shows great craftsmanship and it has been preserved in beautiful condition. There are no visible cracks, dents or damage. Only a light platinum proves that the object is 50 years old.
