Fused Art Glass Dish with Goose Motif (Signed 'glass by J.')

This is a decorative art glass dish or platter, likely created using a fusing or slumping technique. The item exhibits a semi-circular or fan-like shape, with a rippled or wavy edge suggesting it was slumped into a mold. The primary decoration features a stylized goose or swan rendered in black, brown, and white enamels, outlined in gold, prominently positioned in the lower-center of the piece. The background comprises various textures and colors: the lower portion, representing water, is a deep, mottled blue with a textured, almost bubbly surface. The upper portion, suggestive of a sky or a natural setting, features various shades of green, yellow, and a lighter blue, with intentional air bubbles or fused glass elements resembling lily pads or water droplets. A light yellowish-white square element is visible behind the goose's neck, adding another layer of visual interest. The piece is highly tactile, with raised elements and varied surface finishes. A notable feature is the signature 'glass by J.' (or similar), written in gold script on the blue 'water' portion, indicating it is an artisan-made piece. The overall condition appears excellent, with no visible chips, cracks, or significant wear. The colors are vibrant and the details sharp, suggesting good preservation. Its contemporary handcrafted aesthetic points towards a modern or late 20th to early 21st-century origin.
