Venetian Murano Alfredo Barbini Hand Blown collection Glass Apple - Italy

A beautiful hand blown glass apple made in Murano, Italy, known for glass making for hundreds of years. Alfred Barbini was a glass artist born in 1912 on the islands of Murano and was one of Murano's leading figures of the twentieth century. This apple has two circular flat surfaces so apple can sit on the end or lay on side. Note the gold flecks in the leaves. In perfect condition, no chips or cracks. Very heavy piece. Note the apple inside the apple. The pictures may show some reflections, hard to capture the full beauty of this piece in pictures. See pictures for size.
