Murano Blown Glass Duck Figurine

This item is a decorative Murano blown glass duck figurine, showcasing vibrant colors and intricate glasswork. The duck features a body predominantly composed of clear glass with sweeping internal accents of rich green and opaque white. The head and neck are also clear glass, transitioning into a striking yellow beak with a black tip. Small black glass dots form the eyes, adding a touch of realism. A distinctive black glass ring encircles the neck, suggesting a stylized collar or a traditional Murano technique to define body sections. The base of the figurine is a flat, solid black glass element, providing stability. The craftsmanship indicates individual hand-blowing, with visible variations in glass thickness and color blending, characteristic of artisanal glass production. The piece appears to be in good condition with no immediately visible chips, cracks, or repairs, maintaining its glossy finish. Based on the style and typical production methods, it is likely a 20th-century piece, possibly from the mid-to-late century, in the Murano art glass tradition. The presence of a measuring tape in the image indicates its approximate height is around 8 inches, giving it a substantial decorative presence. The quality of the glass and the execution of the colors suggest a well-made, decorative art piece.
