Murano Blown Glass Bowl Amberina Bullicante Controlled Bubble Silver Fleck Italy

This bowl has it all & the photos do not do it justice! Heavy rolled edge bowl, this style is frequently attributed to the 1960s studio of Fratelli Toso in Murano, Italy which it could be but he was not the only Murano artist to produce this style. It is a very unusual color - amberina - which means it goes from deep orange red at the top through lighter shades of orange to clear at the base. Lovely & difficult bullicante (controlled bubble) technique goes from large bubbles at the top to small at the base. It also features silver aventurine (flakes) throughout the piece. This gives you a great visual combination of silver flakes showing on the rolled edge from the bottom and gold flakes when seen through the orange tone glass on the top, very eye catching as well as the large bubbles being featured in the rolled edge of the bowl. Highly polished clear base, this would be outstanding lit from above or below. Great gift for the glass lover in your life. Size: 7" w x 2.5" h Condition: Excellent, I see no defects.
