Murano Red Orange Italian Art Glass Mushroom Toadstool Paperweight Sculpture

About the Item

Beautiful vintage Murano hand blown glowing yellow with red-orange and copper spots Italian art glass mushroom / toadstool paperweight. Created for the Fornasa De Murano A L'Insegna Del Moreto company, by designer Galliano Ferro. I have previously owned several with the labels still attached. The mushroom cap has spots of copper aventurine flecks that glitter when they catch the light. Please look at the close up photos. The piece glows bright neon green under a black light from the high amount of Uranium / UV reactive glass (see photo). It is made with thick glass, and it is heavy for its size. Would make a great display piece on any desk, coffee table or curio cabinet. Mid-century era. Measurements: 3 1/2" tall x 4" wide.
