(Arte Vetraria Muranese) "Bizantino," also known as "Tutti Frutti," a decorative bowl or ashtray made of Murano glass from the 1950s—a highly characteristic and, from a collector's perspective, remarkable example of Italian glass art from this era.

The heavy, thick-walled glass object has a diameter of 19 cm and is 6 cm high; its form is defined by a hand-shaped, gently undulating, asymmetrical rim. Within the deep emerald and turquoise-green glass body unfolds an exceptionally rich and multi-layered decoration.

The composition reveals blue, turquoise, pink, violet, yellow, white, and green glass fibers, delicate net-like structures, spirally drawn elements, and various polychrome glass details. The fused Murrina mark serves as the maker's mark.

One of the most interesting details of the object is the round murrina with a spiral pattern on its body, as it is extremely rare for an object of this age to retain its original signature. Among collectors, this feature significantly increases the object's value and desirability.

This detail is particularly important for identifying objects from the "A.Ve.M. Bizantino / Tutti Frutti" series and represents a characteristic technical solution of artisanal glassmaking in Murano during this period.

Due to the handcrafted production and spontaneous arrangement, each of these pieces is a unique composition; no two are exactly alike. This piece has an attribution mark,
