AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Artistic owl-shaped vase in Murano glass – signed – Italy, second half of the 20th century

artistic Murano glass-blown vase, made in the second half of the 20th century. The design depicts a stylized owl, with eyes heat-set and enriched by gold leaf inclusions and a body in ruby red glass with a craquelé effect. The modeled upper rim completes the figure, giving the piece a strong sculptural impact.

The base is ground and bears a hand-engraved signature reading "RC Murano Italy", attributable to Murano production, although the furnace has not been identified with certainty.

The piece measures approximately 16 cm in height and 12 cm in diameter at the opening. It is in excellent vintage condition, with no chips or detectable restorations, showing only the usual very slight signs of age and artisanal workmanship.

A decorative object of great charm, ideal for collectors of Murano art glass and for design-oriented interiors.

Secure packaging.
