AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Entirely handmade in Murano with lampworking, these two strawberries in solid glass are a small classic of Italian design: simple in form, precious in craftsmanship.

Each strawberry is hot-modelled in transparent rubino red solid glass, in the typical heart shape that narrows toward the tip. The entire surface is marked by tiny pits, reproducing the seeds of the real fruit and, when hit by light, they glow with reflections like many small lenses. At the top, the cup of leaves is hot-applied in green glass: the tips extend over the fruit and, where the green overlaps the red, they take on darker, deeper shades. In the center, a small curved stem protrudes.

The two strawberries are different sizes, one large and one smaller, forming a harmonious pair. They are perfect on a shelf, on a table, or in a glass bowl, and thanks to the solid glass they can also be used as paperweights. An original gift for those who love design, artistic glass, or simply strawberries.

Each strawberry is unique: the arrangement of the pits, the shape of the leaves, and the tiny bubbles enclosed in the glass vary from piece to piece. They are a sign of artisanal workmanship, not defects.

Seller's Story

Hi, I'm the founder of Bottega Isola. I was born and raised on Murano, and glass runs in my family: I grew up around the furnaces, surrounded by a craft my family has carried for generations. I've always been drawn to design and to handmade, one-of-a-kind objects, the kind that make memorable gifts for any occasion. Inspired by many cultures and design styles but rooted in my island's tradition, I create and select pieces that carry the history of Murano glass into today's homes and spaces. Nothing here is chosen at random. Most designs go through several trials before they're just right, and each one has to bring something to the space it lives in, whether that's purpose, character or atmosphere. Every piece is handmade on Murano by some of the island's most skilled glass masters, using techniques passed down for centuries. Each one comes with a certificate of authenticity and is carefully hand-packed in professional, glass-safe packaging, so it reaches you safely wherever you are.
