Wonderful Set of Two Large Murano Glass Birds (Sommerso) – Attributed to Rubelli Vetri d’Arte

A remarkable and impressive set of two large Murano glass birds, masterfully executed in the distinctive sommerso technique with rich shades of green and amber, beautifully combined with a gold finish. The sculptures have elegant, flowing forms and are provided with striking, tall and graceful tails that create a chic silhouette.

By connoisseurs this style and quality is attributed to the renowned Rubelli Vetri d’Arte (the 1960s). A true eye-catcher for lovers of mid-century Italian design. The birds are identified as Rubelli Vetri d’Arte by specialists and connoisseurs in a Facebook group called Murano Glass Animals. They are involved in sharing decades of accumulated knowledge, identifying Murano pieces and catalogs of well-known and unknown pieces made in Murano
