The ashtray originates from the 1960s and was crafted in Italy. It is a hand-formed piece of thick glass in gold-green tones, adorned with the characteristic Bullicante technique β regularly arranged air bubbles skillfully embedded in the glass mass. The irregular, wavy rim lends it a sculptural character, while the transparent, shimmering glass is impressive in both daylight and artificial light. This object is a unique example of Venetian craftsmanship and typical of Murano workshops of the mid-20th century. The condition corresponds to the original, with slight scratches and normal signs of use possible.
