Alfredo Barbini Murano Hand Blown Aquarium Vase

About the Item

This example of an "Aquarium Vase" was made by Alfredo Barbini and it exemplifies his great talent and workmanship. A wonderful melding of colors and fish subjects, the shaded body evokes the colors of the sea. The deep orange "coral" reaches up to the "surface" with various fish swimming through the seascape.

  • Signed Osler Epergne Silver Bronze Centerpiece w/ Winged Griffins Crystal Vases
    By F. & C. Osler
    Located in Great Barrington, MA
    This is a rare and spectacular example of F. & C. Osler's workmanship. The Osler firm was founded in Birmingham, England, in 1807. Thomas Osler and a partner produced small ornaments, followed by glass prisms and parts for chandeliers. In 1831, Osler's sons, Follett and Clarkson, assumed control of the business, which was eventually reorganized as F. & C. Osler. They moved to new premises in Birmingham, and in 1852 they opened their own glass factory so that they no longer had to rely on others for their glass. A perfect round and low centerpiece this will be the focal point of any table setting. The plateau base is engraved with a star cutting creating a bright eye-catching center. Ready for your favorite flowers in the removeable, easy to clear trumpet vases.
