AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Murano glass.
Excellent condition.
Barbini Murano.
16x16x8 cm.
Italian Postal Service.

Splendid and elegant pocket-emptier art piece in solid Murano glass, characterized by the refined "a bollicine" (air bubbles carefully embedded in the glass) and enhanced by a rich inclusion of 24k gold leaf sprinkled inside.
The object presents an organic, thick, and domed shape, typical of the great Murano glassmaking tradition of the 20th century.
Light creates spectacular golden reflections and dynamic visual effects through the regular bubble pattern.
On the underside there is the signature incised with a diamond-tipped tool: "Barbini Murano".

Please view the photos carefully as they are an integral part of the description.
Fast shipping and careful packaging.
