About the Item

An exceptionally elegant mid-20th-century Murano art glass stylized duck or waterbird figurine. The piece showcases a beautifully stylized, minimalist silhouette with smooth, sweeping contours that exemplify the mid-century Venetian approach to organic modernism. The body is expertly crafted using a striking graphic technique, embedding dense, fine vertical stripes of deep tortoiseshell brown and cream-white glass canes within a clear crystal outer layer. The bird’s upturned beak is finished with a rich amber-brown hue, adding a subtle warmth to the high-contrast monochromatic color scheme. Measuring 21 cm in length and 15 cm in height, this sophisticated animal sculpture serves as a highly collectible and refined accent piece for modern and vintage interiors alike.
