After acquiring a number of these through an estate sale, we are selling the best of the best here on Chairish. Given the age of these fine works of Sabino art, their structural and aesthetic integrity are in great shape.

In this set, there is a Sabino Butterfly 2 3/4" h x 1 1/2 w. a Sabino Swan 1 3/4" h x 1 1/2 L x
1 1/4 " w and 2 mini birds both around 1 " h x 1 11/8" w x 1 1/4 " L

All photos were taken with a light source underneath the acrylic lift ( covered by a white cloth ) and a light source to the left shining on the birds. That is the only way I know how to show that all the original opalescent properties built into the glass at the time of manufacture
are intact and as beautiful today as they were in the 1930's.

Given the age of four fine works of Sabino art, their structural and aesthetic integrity are in great shape.

All engraved Sabino signatures shown.

I didn't take a picture of these with just regular room light, but the opalescence is less when a direct light source is not filtering straight through the glass. They are still pretty as is, but you can get more dazzle out of them in terms of light reflection and different colors when direct light is shining through them. By staging them in a lighted curio cabinet or on a shelf or display table with access to direct sunlight, you can enjoy more of the opalescent richness.

The whole set weighs about 4 ounces without packaging. See less
