Description from the seller

Handcrafted Pair of Murano Glass Sheep with Gold Leaf – Somnia Murano Glass

A refined pair of decorative sheep, handcrafted from authentic Murano glass and embellished with submerged gold leaf, which adds depth, luminosity, and precious golden reflections.

The two sculptures stand out for their distinctive craftsmanship and color combinations:

White, black, and gold sheep: featuring a body decorated with an original pattern of irregular white spots against a black background, enhanced with inclusions of gold leaf. The head, ears, and tail in glossy black glass create an elegant contrast with the body’s surface.

Amber, green, and gold sheep: featuring striking amber, brown, and deep green shades, crossed by veins and translucent areas that give the composition depth. The submerged gold leaf accents enhance the craftsmanship, while the head and other details in glossy black glass harmoniously complete the figure.

Both sheep have soft, rounded shapes, with hand-sculpted details that bring out their expressive character.

The handcrafted process makes each sculpture unique, with slight variations in shades and in the distribution of the gold leaf.

Ideal for adding a touch of elegance to a living room, display cabinet, or collection of Venetian art glass, these small creations also make an original gift idea.

Seller's Story

Somnia Murano Glass is born from a passion for beauty, timeless elegance, and the ancient Venetian glassmaking tradition. Our goal is to showcase the art of Murano glass through unique jewelry, capable of telling a story and capturing in every detail the charm of Venice. Each piece is the result of the meeting between craft tradition and aesthetic research. Intense colors, delicate transparencies, murrine, and precious details in gold and silver leaf give life to jewelry rich in personality, designed for those who love to stand out with elegance. We select our creations with care, highlighting the quality of workmanship, the originality of shapes, and those small details that make each piece of jewelry special. The name Somnia, from Latin sogni (dreams), represents our vision: to transform the beauty of Venetian glass into something to wear, to cherish and to pass down. For us, a piece of jewelry is not merely an accessory, but a small work of art capable of evoking emotions and telling the story of a timeless tradition. Somnia Murano Glass — Venetian Dreams, Timeless Elegance.
