A wonderful centerpiece for your table, this magnificent blown Murano Glass bowl features rich colors with extraordinary depth and radiance and presents a fine example of the most distinctive ancient Murano technique- Millefiori. Created with hundreds of colorful handcrafted glass mosaic pieces featuring exquisite flower designs, this Murano bowl is elegant, light, and artistic. The sense of weightlessness is achieved by the unique "fazzoletto" shape ("handkerchief" in Italian), invented by Murano masters to create exquisite handkerchief folds in glass. This beautiful authentic Murano glass bowl was painstakingly crafted by hand using only traditional glass-making methods by a third-generation Murano maestro, whose work is displayed at exhibitions and in museums worldwide. It will make a perfect centerpiece on your table and will bring a glimpse of famous Italian design and Venetian opulence to your home. This Venetian bowl also makes a unique luxurious birthday, anniversary, or wedding gift because it is a rare museum-quality piece destined to become a family treasure for generations.
Measurements:The bowl is approximately 3 inches tall and 7 1/4 inches in diameter at the top. The diameter of the base is 3 inches. This Murano Glass bowl is signed by the master. Attached sticker further proves its Murano origin, as does the certificate of authenticity that comes with the bowl. Because each Murano Glass piece is a unique work of art made by hand, slight variations of colors, patterns, and shapes are possible.
Bowl was a gift to a friend. She loved it. Told me that many family members complimented her how beautiful and loved how is looked on her coffee table!

Bowl was given as a gift to replace one we purchased at Murano Glass Works a few years ago. Recipient was surprised and very happy to receive a replacement. Gift was sent on time and received intact.

this piece was delivered as described and is as beautiful as I've seen firsthand in Italy. However, I don't see where it is signed by the "master" as the write up states. I have lots of Murano and the only master crafter signatures I have are on cards that accompany the item.

Workmanship
It all starts with cutting special Millefiori canes into small pieces and carefully sorting them by hand inside a Murano Glass factory in Venice, Italy. The next step is dipping a ball of hot glass into the bowls of Millefiori pieces of appropriate colors to create a unique design and pattern. Then the master holds the glass inside a hot furnace until the Millefiori beads get completely infused into the surface of the future glass object. Next, the master shapes up the object turning it into a Murano Glass bowl, centerpiece or a plate using only very simple instruments to stretch and form the glass, creating waves and folds in its surface so real that they seem to be moving. Going back and forth between the furnace and the bench, heating, blowing, shaping, twisting each piece, artisans create Murano Glass Millefiori centerpieces, vases, bowls, ashtrays and decorative plates based on decades of experience in their factories and workshops on Murano island.
