Barovier & Toso "Graffati" Murano Gold Leaf Glass Bowl

Description

Here is a wonderful large and very heavy 1950/60's Venetian freeform glass bowl/dish, made on the island of Murano, near Venice, Italy. Made by Barovier & Toso, part of their 'Graffati' range. In a stunning combination of pink speckled cased glass with a white swirling pattern, and loads of gold leaf inclusions encased in the glass.

Size

Measures approx 3.25 inches tall by 8.25 inches in diameter at widest point.

Condition

Excellent condition, no chips or cracks other than a tiny nick to one corner of the rim, shown in final picture. Please note, all four corners have a slightly rough feel to them - this is due to the way the glass was pinched and pulled outwards during the manufacturing process and is not damage.
