A Murano glass bird sculpture. The Italian art glass bird stands on a round blue glass base, and is hand-blown in colors of clear, gold-flecked, bright pink, red, lavender and pale blue, with a crested head and long tail feathers. No signature.
Welcome -- You can post up to 4 images in each post, and us folks here at CW just LOVE lots photos. Again Welcome -- Wonderful Murano Bird !!
Very nice piece of Murano German, and welcome to CW. You have a good one. It is by Alfredo Barbini circa 1960's for Weil Ceramics & Glass. Birds of this Barbini design have clear glass crests that join to the bill and a clear glass circular disk that covers the face on both sides. Like Rosie said, you can add more pics from different angles.
