Hand-blown in the renowned bullicante technique, it features controlled air bubbles suspended within thick ruby red glass. The sculptural, biomorphic form adds an organic elegance to any space.

Crafted on the Venetian island of Murano, this piece is attributed to the Murano school, in the style of Barbini or Seguso. The deep red hue and fluid, wing-like shape create a bold decorative statement, ideal as a standalone art glass object or functional bowl.

A beautiful example of collectible Murano glass. See less
