Art Glass Rooster Figurine

This is a handcrafted blown glass figurine of a rooster, exhibiting a vibrant and stylized mid-century aesthetic. The piece utilizes a complex coloration technique featuring a warm amber or honey-gold base body heavily infused with dark brown or black tortoiseshell-style mottling and streaking, which creates a dynamic sense of movement along the elongated neck. The comb and wattle are fashioned from striking, translucent cherry-red glass, expertly fused to the main body. The construction showcases typical hand-manipulated techniques including pulled glass for the three distinct tail feathers and a rounded, stable base. The overall form is elegant and vertical, standing approximately 8 to 12 inches tall. There are no visible maker's marks or signatures in the image, though the style is highly reminiscent of Murano glasswork from the 1960s or 1970s. The condition appears excellent with a high-gloss finish, no visible chips or cracks, and clear transparency in the colored sections. The craftsmanship is evident in the smooth transitions between glass colors and the balanced, upright posture of the bird.
