Like a Venice evening, this amazing murrine lamp rediates a soft, colorful ambiance when lit. The brass parts have a nice aged patina. The lamp had to be re-wired, as the original 90 year old vintage wire was frayed. Otherwise, the lamp remains in its original pristine condition and is an amazing example of the skill of the Murano Glassblowers. The lamp is documented in "Catalogo a stampa Fratelli Toso, 1920 ca",page 41.

20th century glass Venetian Figurine in excellent condition, although unmarked, is probably made by Seguso or Barovier.

The figurine is 10.5" tall, in great condition, obviously kept in a cabinet over the years, and bears an import label.
