Chinese Murano Style Pink Sommerso Glass Teardrop Sculpture

Product Number: WS14417

 Sold / Reference 

Description

Here is a wonderful, heavy (1.6 kg unpacked) pink and clear glass teardrop shaped paperweight. Easily mistaken for Murano glass, indeed some sellers would like you to believe as such, in hopes of achieving a higher price, but this piece was actually made in China, probably in the last 10 - 20 years. Made using the Venetian developed sommerso technique. Also has an air bubble pattern encased in the glass, and a rectangular clear block plinth.

Size

Measures approx 8.5 inches tall by 4.25 inches in diameter at widest point.

Condition

No chips or cracks other than a flake nibble to the underneath base rim, shown in final pictures.
