Stunning hand-blown fish bowl with six different fish, coral, grasses and bubbles. Unmarked but after much research this appears to Italian Murano Glass. A tranquil pleasure to admire—a tropical fish aquarium with no need to feed or maintain!
The first examples of Murano glass aquariums were designed and manufactured in 1950, by Cenedese glassworks and Alfredo Barbini. Colorful fish, underwater grasses and other decorations are created from glass rods, called murrina, then skillfully embedded (while nearly molten) within the glass "tank". less
