This item is Original from the 1960s
Made in Murano, Italy.

Excellent Vintage condition:
Structurally Perfect without chips, breaks or marks
Some opacities / cloudiness visible if the item is exposed to direct light at certain angles.

This bowl has a particular history. It has never been used, never sold before, it is part of a lot that was stored New in a warehouse in Venice for more than 50 years.
We acquired a portion of that lot.

The little cloudiness comes from the age of the object and is due to the very saline environment of the Venice lagoon.

The original labels are no longer there (they came off during the cleaning phase) but the production of the lot from which this item comes was made by MA-GU-SE (Vetrerie Seguso).

It's a Real Piece of Venetian history.
