Lampwork Glass Rooster Figurine

This is a small, handcrafted lampwork glass figurine depicting a rooster. The piece is constructed from multiple colors of soda-lime glass, utilizing torch-blowing and hand-shaping techniques. The body is primarily a translucent milky-white or pale 'seafoam' green glass, which transitions into a more vibrant, saturated green for the stylized tail feathers and the small chick figure at the rooster's side. The head features applied glass details: a yellow beak, a red comb, and red wattles. Small dark dots represent the eyes. The stylized form is characteristic of artisanal lampworking, where glass rods are melted and fused together. There are no visible maker's marks or signatures, suggesting it may be a folk-art piece or a souvenir-style glass ornament. The condition appears to be excellent with no visible chips, cracks, or surface scratches; the glass retains a high gloss finish throughout. This style of glasswork is common in mid-to-late 20th-century decorative collectibles. The proportions are whimsical rather than anatomically accurate, emphasizing the artistic interpretation of the bird.
