A Substantial Mid-Century Art Glass Showstopper! 🐦🌊✨

Make a bold statement on your mantel, shelving unit, or entryway console with this spectacular vintage mid-century modern art glass shorebird sculpture. Crafted in the iconic Italian Murano tradition, this majestic wading bird perfectly balances the delicate elegance of hand-sculpted glass with the rugged, industrial charm of mid-century brutalist design.

Standing an impressive 13.5" tall and weighing a hefty 3.6 lbs, this high-quality artisan piece features a thick, cased glass body exploding with mottled, vibrant aqua-blue and seafoam-white speckles inside. A crystal-clear arched neck flows gracefully into a striking opaque black beak, all crowned by an exquisite, frosted glass crest. The entire sculpture stands tall and proud on a pair of custom-welded matte black wire legs and feet.

Why It's a Total Hidden Gem:

  • Substantial Presence: This is a large, heavy, gallery-weight art piece—not a lightweight reproduction. It anchors a room instantly.
  • The Perfect Design Mashup: The sleek, organic lines of the colorful Venetian-style glass contrast flawlessly against the industrial, clean lines of the black metal legs.
  • Condition: Excellent vintage condition. The hand-blown glass body is incredibly clean, bright, and completely free of cracks, chips, or fleabites, and the welded wire base is sturdy and perfectly balanced.

Specifications:

  • Height: 13.5 inches
  • Length (Breast to Tail): 9 inches
  • Weight: 3.6 lbs
