Description from the seller

Beautiful Pair of Murano Glass Birds – Gino Cenedese – 29 cm & 25.5 cm – Mint Condition!

An exquisite, original set of two mid-century Murano art glass birds from the 1960s, attributed to master glass artist Gino Cenedese.

The birds were crafted with the renowned Fenicio technique, whereby a wavy, feathered pattern of amber, warm brown, and white glass threads is beautifully captured in a heavy, clear glass outer layer (sommerso). The pair forms a unique duo: one bird has its head elegantly tilted back, while the other gazes forward in a graceful pose.

Both objects are in absolute new condition; no chips, flea bites, or damage to the delicate beaks and sharp tail tips.

Specifications
Origin: Murano, Italy (Attributed to Gino Cenedese)
Period: 1960s (Mid-Century Modern)
Glass technique: Fenicio / Sommerso / Massief geblazen (vetro massello)

Weight: 1,080 grams and 1,044 grams (total just over 2.1 kg)

Remarks
The generous size of nearly 30 cm and the substantial weight make this set a premium focal point in a modern or vintage interior. The small weight difference between the two birds underscores the authentic, artisanal craftsmanship.
