This pair of vintage Italian Murano glass paperweights, crafted in the 1980s, presents a captivating blend of transparency and dynamic form. Each conical piece features a clear glass exterior, encasing a swirling vortex of smokey brown glass. This interior design element evokes a sense of controlled chaos, a frozen moment of fluid movement captured within the solid form. While the original Murano labels are absent, the quality of the glass and the complexity of the design are indicative of authentic Murano craftsmanship. This paperweight set is a functional desk accessory, but also a compelling object of art. It invites the eye to explore the interplay of light and shadow within its depths. In great condition. Collector's piece.
