Barbini Murano White Gold Flecks Italian Art Glass Bird Figurine Paperweight
About the Item
Beautiful vintage Murano hand blown white and gold flecks Italian art glass bird on base figurine, paperweight. Documented to designer Alfredo Barbini, circa 1950-60s. I have owned others like this with the Barbini labels, and similars are published in his glass catalog. The bird is profusely covered in gold leaf throughout its body, wings and tail, as well as the dome base. Would make a great display piece on any desk, vanity or curio cabinet. Mid-century era. Measures: 5" tall x 5 1/2" across the wings x 3 3/4" long.
