An exceptional piece of vintage art glass, weighing in at a substantial 643g. This stylized owl features a masterfully controlled "Sommerso" effect, with a rich amber exterior that glows like liquid honey when backlit.
The Details:
Design: Minimalist Mid-Century "Owl" form with large, textured ring eyes and a sculptural beak.
Construction: Solid, heavy hand-blown glass with natural seed bubbles.
Display: Features a 1cm mounting hole at the base (originally for a wooden display peg). It stands perfectly on its own as a heavy art piece or paperweight.
Dimensions: A massive 643g—feels incredible in the hand.
Curators note: The quality of the glass and the precision of the eye application point toward a quality European glassworks. It’s a sophisticated "light-catcher" for a desk, shelf, or window sill.
