About the Item
Signed 24k gold infused Crystal Fish Sculpture by Josef Marcolin. original label
UPDATE: Due to agreement with 1stDibs, we'll be staying through the end of the year.
In addition to the signature on the bottom, the piece still has both of its original labels as well.
In Murano glass work, fine gold dust inside the glass is called gold polveri. Perhaps this term was dropped by Marcolin due to the inclusions being more notable gold flecks rather than gold dust.
Josef Marcolin (1933-2015), who originallly lived and was trained as a glassblower in Murano, Italy, moved to Sweden with his brother Benito in 1954. They made beautiful blown glass/crystal sculptures such as this one, which are known for their unique blend of Murano and Swedish style. In 1991 they moved back to Italy and continued to create for a short time under the name Sardinia Crystal. Eventually they parted and moved again, with Josef continuing to create, under the name Marcolin Art Crystal.
This gorgeous sculpture is approximately 7 x 6.5 x 2.5 inches.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOLLOWS; PLEASE READ THE BELOW IN ITS ENTIRETY.
ABOUT OUR LISTINGS:
-Measurements are approximate and generally represent the approximate widest/longest/highest areas of each item.
-Please be aware that the color on your monitor and/or in your environment may look somewhat different than in ours and that glass colors often look deeper on dark backgrounds than they do on light backgrounds.
-Please keep in mind that vintage glass usually will show evidence of previous ownership, such as scuffing, scratching, and/or other wear such as dulling or mars on base, etc. Buyers of vintage glass are presumed to understand and accept such hints of previous ownership. We cannot realistically guarantee perfection since vintage glass has typically been used at some point in the past. We do however inspect for and describe flaws found.
ABOUT SOME OF THE TERMS WE USE:
"Suspected" means we suspect the item is by the named artist / from the named region due to its similarities to other items from that artist / region, and sometimes also by the lack of the item's characteristics appearing in other artists' works, but we are not certain.
"Assumed" or "likely" means we feel pretty confident it is by the named artist / from the named region but have not found sufficient documentation to confirm it, so while we believe it to be as stated, we are not absolutely certain.
"In the style of" means that based on characteristics, we believe it could be by the named artist / from the named region but we could not find sufficient enough evidence to feel comfortable declaring that definitively. In such cases the item could also be by another glassblower who was inspired by the named artist. Since we do not offer returns, please message us with concerns or questions if you have any before purchasing an item. We'll be pleased to respond.
