Murano-Style Art Glass Scalloped Bowl with Orange Striping

This is a vibrant art glass bowl, likely of Murano or Murano-style origin, characterized by its distinctive scalloped, wavy rim and broad, shallow form. The bowl is made of translucent glass, primarily a bright yellow or amber color, through which runs a pattern of horizontal orange-red stripes. These stripes are consistently spaced and appear to be embedded within the glass, indicating a complex manufacturing process typical of layered or cane glass techniques. The transparency of the glass allows light to pass through, creating an attractive glow, especially where the colors overlap or are denser. The physical characteristics suggest it is large enough to serve as a centerpiece or decorative fruit bowl. The edges of the bowl are intentionally irregular and wavy, giving it an organic, free-form aesthetic. There are no visible chips, cracks, or significant abrasions on the surface, suggesting it is in good, used condition. The craftsmanship appears to be of high quality, with smooth finishes and precise integration of the colored stripes. While no specific maker's marks or signatures are discernible from the image, the style strongly points to mid-20th century Venetian or Murano glass artistry, or a contemporary piece influenced by these traditions. The weight and thickness of the glass, although not explicitly measurable, appear substantial, contributing to its perceived quality and durability. The absence of noticeable wear or repairs further enhances its appeal.
