Beautiful Murano hand blown glass fish. Light blue center with stripes going to blue translucent then green translucent with dark blue back and side fin on top of a stand that has gold flakes in it.
8 in high 6 inches wide and base is about 2 1/2
Hi Debby,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
This fish is certainly done in the style of Murano glassworks but I'm not finding any comparable examples on which to hang an attribution. In the current market, unsigned Murano pieces are not nearly as desirable to collectors as signed pieces and at auction, I would expect this to sell for $100-150.
Based on the photos and information provided, and subject to examination, this is:
A vintage Murano hand-blown fish sculpture
unattributed maker, mid/late 20th Century
The blue and green angelfish with cobalt tail and fins, on a swirled gold-flecked glass foot. Unsigned.
Height: 8 inches; width: 6 inches; base: 2-1/2 inches
CONDITION: This appears to be in good condition
PROVENANCE: Inherited
$ 100-150*
*represents a fair-market value for auction purposes; retail or asking price may vary.
Please let us know if you have additional items to appraise, or questions/concerns, and thank you again for using Mearto.
