Description

Swedish Modern Venetian Bird

Very large sommerso art glass mid-century modern bird figurine. Made by Pilgrim Art Glass with label still attached. Circa 1960s. From Pilgrim’s “Swedish Modern” line. Anything “Swedish” was adored by the Americans during the mid-century years. Pilgrim is an American glass maker, one of many who happily adopted the inspired ultra-modern Swedish design style of the day.

Hand-made with full-length stylized center bubble encased in amber glass, then encased with clear glass. Applied eyes and beak. VERY hard to find. Most of these have not survived the last 50 years.

Large. This lovely bird measures 13″ long, 7″ at tallest point,and weighs 3.25 lbs.[color-box]More About Pilgrim Art Glass[/color-box][color-box]More About American Glass[/color-box]
