Impressive vintage Italian art glass sculpture / paperweight. L arge, heavy glass cube or block paperweight with rounded edges and corners. Made in Murano Italy by the Venini Glass Factory, I believe for Pierre Cardin. Solid clear glass with black swirls and controlled bubbles. Flat factory polished bottom. Most likely had a label on it’s base at one time. Measurements : 3.75″ tall by 3.5″ wide and deep…. 4.75 corner to corner. Just under 4 lbs.. at exactly 3 lbs. Condition is near mint. A few very light surface rubs on the bottom. It was pretty hard to capture the true beauty of this sculpture therefore I have shown it with different backgrounds and lighting conditions. Will be carefully packed to ensure a safe arrival. The item “VENINI Pierre Cardin Murano Art Glass CUBE SCULPTURE Paperweight Bubbles Vintage” is in sale since Thursday, December 26, 2019.
