Vintage Murano handblown Glass Ashtray-Italy.

An authentic Murano piece can be identified by the individuality of the piece as well as various flaws such as air bubbles caught inside, or slightly imperfect shaping due to the artistic craft of working with molten glass. Red glass is the most expensive glass to make as it requires pure gold in the process for the coloring, adding to the beauty and appeal of the piece. This piece is unique and weighs in at 1.9 lbs. and measures 5” and 3” in height.
