This is a glowing example of the ability of the Murano artists to adapt themselves to the contemporary trends. The cobalt blue ribbon tinged with green and white mounted on a globe is in keeping with the contemporary designs. The twisting ribbon presents a high level of grace and delicacy. This fabulous Venetian glass art piece is a style statement in itself. The globe is made using an ancient murano glass technique called bollinato. In this air bubbles of various sizes are trapped inside the molten glass using spikes to form holes and closing the holes using another layer of the molten glass. This gives the article a special look. Item is in excellent condition. Small scratches on bottom hardly noticeable. Please inspect pictures and ask questions.
