Item # :

 MD_GALLO_ARLOR
Our delightful Murano Glass rooster was hand-made by the glass masters using a very distinctive ancient Murano technique called Millefiori (a thousand flowers). Hundreds of colorful Murano Glass mosaic pieces with patterns inside are fused together and richly sprinkled with real 24K gold to give this Venetian rooster its opulence and charm. Whimsical and unique, the Murano Millefiori rooster sculpture is an instant conversation piece and a great way to bring Venetian artistic heritage and famed Murano craftsmanship into your living room. The Murano Glass rooster also makes a fantastic whimsical gift that is guaranteed to be treasured for generations.
Measurements: The Murano rooster measures approximately 4-1/2 inches in length, 4 inches in height and 2 inches in width. It is very well packaged to avoid damage in transit and comes with a certificate of authenticity.

Because each Murano Glass piece is a unique work of art made by hand, slight variations of colors and patterns are possible.

Larger Murano Glass figures and sculptures are typically made in the ancient factories on Murano island, where there is enough space to turn, twist, and blow the glass, move it into and out of the large furnaces, and cool it down properly. Making the glass mixture with the right color intensity and pattern is only a part of the job. The biggest challenge is shaping the glass just perfectly while keeping it in the correct state in between the bench and the furnace. This requires special skills rarely found outside of Murano Glass artist and artisan community. These Murano Glass sculptures of lovers, Venetian ladies and gentlemen, clowns, abstract art, animals and birds crafted in well-known Murano factories are top-quality art glass pieces sought after by interior decor specialists and collectors alike.
