Crafted in Italy, this collection showcases the colorful design typical of Venetian glassmakers. The set includes five distinct figures in various poses; musicians holding an accordion and a stringed instrument, as well as an acrobat standing upside down on his hands. Each piece is constructed with a vibrant array of colored glass, utilizing techniques to form the characteristic ruffled collars, top hats, and expressive facial details. One of the accordion-playing clowns retains a partial "Made in Murano" foil sticker on its base, confirming the set's origin. Ranging in height from 21 to 43 centimeters, the collection offers a cohesive display. Please review the condition details: the large clown holding an accordion has a chipped section on its hair. This set is a classic addition for collectors of mid-century Italian art glass. See less
