Venini 1930s Tyra Lundgren Murano Iridescent Italian Art Glass Fish Sculpture

About the Item

Very rare and large, antique Murano hand blown "A Fasce" striped Italian art glass fish with iridescent surface sculpture. Documented to Tyra Lundgren circa 1935-1936, fully signed "Venini Murano Italia". I have photographed the signature how it looks normally, and added a photo with high contrast (last photo), so you can see the lettering better. Similar ones are published in Venini books as a prime examples of her work. The entire surface has the aurene, iridescent layer. Pontil mark under the mouth. Polished base. Would make a great display piece on any console table or shelf. A must for the Venini collector. Measures 12 1/2" long x 4 1/2" tall.
