Vintage Purple Murano Glass Sculpture/Paperweight, Ball with Included Bubbles
About the Item
Vintage Murano paperweight in the shape of a sphere with a flat bottom to make it stand still. Made in a deep, vibrant hue of purple glass, it has included bubbles that confer it depth and volume. It is a really attractive object that generates a nice play of reflections and shadows when hit by direct light, and adds a nice decorative touch to wherever it is placed - there's no need to use it as an actual paperweight!
The ball is well preserved, shows no signs of damage, and the only tells of the time are some minor hairlines and an even patina throughout.
