Description

MCM Murano Blue Opaline And Clear Glass Centrepiece.

Large Organic Shape

Part of a large collection of of Mid Century Art Glass we have in stock

Really unusual colourway and finish

The first opaline glass was made in Murano in the sixteenth century, with the addition of calcium phosphate, resulting from the calcification of bones. The technique did not remain secret and was copied in Germany, where this glass was known as Bone Glass

This hand blown centrepiece in glass is in excellent condition.

Clear base.

Possibly Murano but can find no reference

It would make a magnificent addition to any serious glass collection.
