AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Set of three refined Murano art glass ashtrays or pocket-emptiers from mid-20th century. They highlight the craftsmanship and the different finishes of the historic Murano glassworks.
1) Ashtray "Rostrato" in the shape of a star is a creation attributed to Ercole Barovier for the renowned Barovier & Toso manufactory (Murano, 1950s). It is characterized by the typical transparent "spumeggiante" glass worked in jagged reliefs, reminiscent of a glacier surface. Measurements: H 6.5 cm. Diameter 12.5 cm. Weight 0.960 kg.
2) Pocket-emptier or vintage ashtray, made of massive transparent artistic glass, characterized by a distinctive organic and wavy shape with torchon or spiral workmanship. Measurements: H 5.5 cm. Diameter 17 cm. Weight: 1.285 kg
3) Pocket-emptier "Bullicante", amorphous in thick transparent glass, attributable to Seguso Vetri d'Arte production (designed by Flavio Poli or Archimede Seguso between the 1950s and 1960s). It showcases the splendid bullicante technique, in which small controlled air bubbles remain encapsulated at regular intervals inside the glass, sometimes enriched by imperceptible golden flecks. Measurements: H 6 cm. Diameter 18.5 cm. Weight: 1.600 kg
Perfectly intact. No chips, no damage.
