An exceptional mantel clock made by Barovier & Toso in Murano, Italy, during the 1950s.
The piece features an imposing circular ring of hand-blown Murano glass, crafted using the prestigious filigree technique, with delicate inclusions of white lattimo glass arranged in a continuous helical pattern. This sculptural frame surrounds an elegant silvered dial mounted on a smoked glass support and a refined gilt metal structure.
The extraordinary optical richness of the glass and the dynamism generated by the filigree reflect the artisanal excellence that made Barovier & Toso one of Murano's most important manufacturers during the 20th century. The understated dial, with its minimalist numerals and delicate gilt hands, contrasts harmoniously with the expressive character of the glass, creating a sophisticated composition that is fully representative of postwar Italian design.
