AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Large sculpture of a cat in Murano artistic glass – second half of the 20th century – 35 cm high
Important and scenographic sculpture depicting a seated cat, made entirely in hand-worked artistic glass.
The body features intense amber-colored glass, combined with large masses of transparent glass. The muzzle presents numerous elements applied hot: turquoise and white eyes, black nose, white whiskers and mouth red/purple.
Particularly refined the large black bow decorated with golden inclusions, applied to the neck.
The sculpture measures about 35 cm in height, and is a sizeable object, heavy and with a strong decorative presence.
For technical characteristics, colors and workmanship, the piece is compatible with the tradition of Murano artistic glass from the second half of the 20th century. Not having a readable signature or an intact label, the manufacture is not attributed to a specific glassworks.
At the bottom there is still a small residue of the old original label.
