AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Entirely handmade in Murano with lamp-working, these two glass strawberries in solid glass are a small classic of Italian design: simple in form, precious in workmanship.

Each strawberry is hot-modeled in transparent ruby red solid glass, in the typical heart shape that narrows to a point. The entire surface is marked by tiny dimples, reproducing the seeds of the real fruit and, when struck by light, they light up with reflections like many tiny lenses. On top, the green glass leaf calyx is hot-applied: the tips extend over the fruit and, where the green overlaps the red, they take on deeper, richer shades. In the center, a small curved stem sprouts.

The two strawberries are different sizes, one large and one smaller, and together they form 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 a paperweight. An original gift for someone who loves design, artistic glass, or simply strawberries.

Each strawberry is unique: the arrangement of the dimples, the shape of the leaves, and the small bubbles enclosed in the glass vary from piece to piece. They are the mark of handmade craftsmanship, not defects.

Details
Technique: solid glass hand-shaped and heated, with applied leaves.
Number of pieces: 2 strawberries.
Dimensions of the large strawberry: approximately 6 × 4 × 4 cm.
Dimensions of the small strawberry: approximately 4.5 × 3 × 3 cm.

The set is accompanied by a certificate of originality, attesting to the artisanal Murano glass workmanship.

Fast shipping, with careful and secure packaging.

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.
