1990s Alfredo Barbini Modern Black Murano Glass Paperweight depicting an Hand
About the Item
This paperweight reflects the elegance and modern artistry of 1990s Murano glass while also carrying the signature style of one of the most renowned Venetian glassmakers of the 20th century. The paperweight is made from black Murano glass, which is known for its high quality, clarity, and smooth finish. Murano glass is hand-blown and crafted by skilled artisans, and Alfredo Barbini was a master of this art form. The paperweight depicts a hand in a modern, abstract fashion. The hand appears as a sculpted form, smoothly emerging from the glass. The black Murano glass adds a contemporary, bold look to the piece.
Given that it's a paperweight, the item is relatively small, fitting comfortably in the palm of the hand., it's in perfect condition and acid signed Barbini Murano on the bottom.
