This exquisite figurine is large and has been hand crafted on a clear glass quatrefoil shaped base. The feather tuft on the head, the beak and the tail has been designed in clear glass while the body is a beautiful Sacramento green fading gently into a milder forest green within the arched neck and head. A multitude of encapsulated bullicante control bubbles are depicted within the green of the body, which grants the figurine a jewel-like sparkle in the glass.
This is a magnificent free-standing Murano Art Glass figurine which is expertly hand crafted. The piece looks sensational when displayed in a place where light can filter freely through the glass.
The figurine is not marked or stamped and has lost the label, but a similar Murano item can be viewed here: https://www.rubylane.com/item/1025942-MS-00222/Tall-Sculpture-Murano-Water-Bird-Mid?search=1&t=2703aa7e
The very tip of the head tuft has a chip at the point, which although not visible, can be felt with a fingertip. Aside from this the figurine is in very good condition.
