The bowl has a dramatic freeform ruffled rim with six sweeping points that give it a flower-like appearance when viewed from above. The underside shows the polished circular base visible in the photographs. A striking vintage Murano art glass bowl featuring rich pink-to-amber coloring, shimmering silver mica inclusions, and controlled bubbles suspended throughout the glass. The bowl has a dramatic freeform ruffled rim with six sweeping points that give it a flower-like appearance when viewed from above. The thick hand-blown glass catches and reflects light beautifully, while the metallic mica and bubbles create different effects depending on the viewing angle. The underside shows the polished circular base visible in the photographs. Measures approximately 6 inches wide and 3 inches tall . Its compact size makes it a beautiful display piece for a curio cabinet, shelf, vanity, or art-glass collection. 3. Maker Marks No maker's signature, factory label, or other identifying mark is visible in the photographs provided. The piece has previously been identified as vintage Murano art glass. Comparable vintage bowls are also marketed with Murano, controlled-bubble, ruffled, and silver-inclusion terminology; however, I did not find enough documentation to attribute this bowl to a specific Murano glasshouse or designer. 4. Condition Preowned vintage condition. No chips or cracks noted. The photographs show the bowl from multiple angles, including the interior, exterior, rim, and underside. Light surface wear consistent with age and previous display may be present. Please review all photographs closely, as they are an important part of the condition description. 5. History Murano, the Venetian island famous for centuries of glassmaking, became particularly associated with colorful decorative art glass and technically elaborate effects. Controlled bubbles—often described in Murano collecting terminology as bullicante —and metallic inclusions are among the decorative techniques associated with mid-century Italian art glass. Ruffled and freeform bowls became especially popular decorative forms and allowed glassmakers to combine sculptural shapes with optical effects created by thick clear and colored glass. Comparable pieces continue to be described in the collector market as Murano controlled-bubble or ruffled art-glass bowls. The exact glasshouse, designer, and production date of this particular piece have not been confirmed. 6. Disclaimer I take great care in packaging each item, including using fragile stickers in multiple places on the packaging when a fragile item is shipped. While I typically do not offer refunds, if your item arrives damaged, I’m happy to help. Please provide clear photos of the item and the original packaging it was in. This helps me to ensure that we work with eBay’s process and policies quickly to ensure a proper refund when needed. Condition: Used.
