A beautiful example of signed studio art glass, this heart-shaped bowl features a striking swirl of cobalt and sky blue encased in clear glass. Crafted in the Murano style using sommerso techniques, it has a lovely organic shape and a glossy finish that catches the light beautifully.
Etched with the artist's signature and dated 12.79 on the base, it's likely a late 1970s studio piece—handmade and individual, not mass produced. The form and colouring are reminiscent of vintage Italian and Maltese glass from the same era.
While originally made as a decorative bowl, the central well is also perfectly sized to hold a standard tealight, making it a versatile piece that works equally well as a candle holder.
Perfect as a display piece, paperweight, or thoughtful gift for a collector of studio or Murano-style glass.
