1960s Barbini Glass Plate

Details

Murano glass master Alfredo Barbini is perhaps best known for his aquariums, but this isn’t his only area of expertise. With this decorative glass plate, he combines his first love with his talent for homewares, crafting a tropical fish to the center of the asymmetric shape, surrounded by ethereal whisps of marine colors. Look closely to spot the natural bubbles of the glassmaking process that add extra realism to the scene. Please note, this item is a truly original vintage piece with slight imperfections and distinctive characteristics that add to its charm and celebrate its unique history.
