AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Entirely handmade in Murano using the lampworking technique, these five solid-glass strawberries are a little classic of Italian design: simple in form, precious in craftsmanship.
Each strawberry is hot-sculpted from transparent ruby-red solid glass, in the classic heart shape that tapers toward the tip. The entire surface is covered with small dimples, recreating the seeds of the real fruit; when struck by the light, they sparkle like tiny lenses. At the top, the leafy calyx is applied hot in green glass: the tips extend over the fruit and, where the green overlaps the red, take on darker, deeper shades. A small curved stem rises from the center.
The strawberries look perfect on a shelf, a table, or in a glass bowl, and thanks to the solid glass, they can also be used as paperweights or place-card holders. An original gift for anyone who loves design, art glass, or simply strawberries.
Each strawberry is unique: the arrangement of the dimples, the shape of the leaves, and the tiny bubbles trapped in the glass vary from piece to piece. These are signs of handmade craftsmanship, not flaws.

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.
