Vintage Glass Paperweight

Up for sale are These unique vintage 1950′s Murano Art Glass Fish Aquarium Paperweight Taper Candle Holders. These are still in wonderful condition. I could not find any chips or scratches. 3″ tall by 3 3/4″ at widest point. They are rounded and have a continuous design with a total of eight fish on each one. They also have controlled bubbles with vivid coloring in the sea floral background. It depicts an enchanting underwater setting with reef and finely detailed polychrome fish. The eight colorful fish were created using pulled colored rods or canes of glass called murrina. The framework of the piece is crystal clear glass with tiny bubbles around the reef. Attributed to Alfredo Barbini. The piece is not signed and probably has a paper sticker. They are missing their original Murano Art Glass foil labels. Check out my other Venetian art glass sculptures. Thank you for looking and good luck.
