Description
Amethyst Occasional Bowls by Murano Art Glass
A lovely set of mid-20th century Murano cased occasional bowls with original label. One retains remnants of original blue and silver label. Can make out words “…in Murano Italy”. The label probably originally read “Genuine Venetian Glass, Made in Murano Italy”.
Hand blown and tooled with graduating trapped air bubbles. The color, uranium content, decor and label dates this set to the 1950s. Made by a fine Italian glassmaker, this pair was made of amethyst glass with a colorless casing that glows bright green under black-light due to Uranium content. Great for nut dishes at the bar, catch-all, munchi service, or decor. Round bowl has a rest with a shell finish, usable for cigars.
Each bowl measures 5″ wide, 2″ deep and weighs 1 lb.[color-box]More About Italian, Murano, Venetian Glass[/color-box]
