Description from the seller

Title: Pair of colored blown glass candle-holding angels – Probably Murano – Cobalt blue and amber orange

Magnificent pair of decorative blown glass angels, probably from Murano (Italy), in vibrant cobalt blue and amber orange.

These two elegant figurines depict angels in long, flared robes, with wings, a head, and a transparent glass halo. Each holds a small glass receptacle intended to hold a candle.

The glasswork shows beautiful details, including delicately formed wings, tilted halos, and the superb contrasts between clear glass and colored glass.

Characteristics:

* Origin: probably Murano, Italy.
* Material: blown and hot-worked glass.
* Colors: cobalt blue and amber orange, with transparent elements.
* Height: about 23 cm.
* Base width: about 11 cm.
* Base depth: about 9 cm.
* Quantity: 2 pieces, sold together.
* Handcrafted.

Condition:
Good overall condition as shown in the photographs. Small irregularities and bubbles may be observed in the glass, characteristic of artisanal craftsmanship.

Note:
These pieces have aesthetic features reminiscent of Murano glassmaking. However, in the absence of a signature or certificate of origin, this attribution remains a hypothesis.

A lovely decorative pair, ideal for fans of Italian artistic glass, blown glass, and collectible objects.

The photographs form an integral part of the description. Packaging is meticulously prepared for shipment due to the fragility of the pieces.
