A lovely 1950s Murano hand-blown glass basket centerpiece in red, gold, and opalescent cased glass. The bowl includes liberal dabs of copper aventurine. The basket is made with three squared panels which flare out and away from the bowl's center. Three slender fingers curve upward and inward from the bowl's rim to touch a few inches above the center of the bowl. The underside is opalescent. The pontil separation mark was ground and polished to form a perfectly flat base.
The basket would make a stunning centerpiece for a dining table. The basket is also worthy of a place in a glass collector's cabinet or curio display.
Dimensions: 9"W x 5"H. Weight: 2 lbs., 10 oz.
No maker's mark or label. Most likely a Fratelli Toso piece made for general export in the 1950s. In excellent condition, with no signs of damage or defects. less
