About the Item

A small square pink Murano glass dish, handcrafted in the 1960s and attributed to Galliano Ferro. This striking piece showcases the sommerso technique, with a vibrant pink glass core encased within thick, crystal-clear Murano glass. The outer layer is further enhanced by a myriad of tiny bubbles, a hallmark of the bullicante technique, creating a dynamic interplay of light and texture. What makes this piece particularly distinctive is its rare acid-etched finish, applied in a gradient format. One half of the exterior features a soft satin texture, which gradually merges into a contrasting highly polished surface—a subtle yet striking effect that adds depth and dimension within the glass layers. Measuring 11 cm in width and depth, with a height of 3 cm, the dish has a relatively deep interior, making it a functional yet decorative choice as a trinket dish, vide poche, or a refined addition to a mid-century Murano glass collection
