    This is such a lovely, delicate little snake. It was purchased from the Murano studio in Italy back in the 1950s by an acquaintance. The quality of the work produced in the past is far superior to the work from that studio currently being produced.

      It's hollow all the way down to the tip of the tail. The glassblower who crafted this was/is truly amazing.
