Mid-Century Murano Style Clear Glass Whale Figurine
Mid-century clear glass whale figurine, crafted in the Murano style with smooth contours, a polished base, and a gracefully curved tail. The clarity of the glass captures and refracts light, producing subtle rainbow highlights along its form. Solidly made, the figurine weighs 2 pounds, giving it a presence beyond many lighter glass animals of this type. A wonderful decorative piece for collectors of marine-inspired art and mid-century glass.
Murano glass of this era was typically identified with a paper label, which often went missing over time with cleaning and use. While this example is unsigned, its form and quality are strongly consistent with Murano production of the mid-20th century.
Condition
In good condition overall, with no chips, cracks, or repairs. The polished bottom shows light surface wear consistent with age and handling, but the glass retains excellent clarity and shine.

5 x 6.5 x 2 inches
