ABOUT PRODUCTID 33002
This decorative Murano glass figurine, crafted in Italy in the 1970s, exemplifies the era’s flair for playful, expressive forms. The main body is a deep, cool-toned green, its glossy surface wrapped in evenly spaced, swirling white stripes that lend dynamism and graphic energy to the spherical shape. The ends, made of clear glass, are sculpted into twisted, stylized 'wrappers'—smooth, lustrous, and subtly folded to evoke the look of a real candy. The proportions are balanced, with the central sphere dominant and the twisted ends providing symmetry and a touch of lightness. The piece is distinctly mid-century modern, with bold color contrasts and organic lines marking its collectible, artistic character. There is a small chip on one edge—typical of authentic vintage pieces—while all elements remain original, with no signs of restoration. A Murano glass candy like this is a time capsule from the 1970s, reflecting the Italian imagination and the freedom of craftsmanship of that period. Its whimsical form recalls a childhood delight, yet it stands as a small sculpture in the world of applied arts—a daily object elevated to the status of art. The green glass, softly reflecting light, and the twisted ends evoke the sun-drenched spontaneity and creative experimentation of Murano glassmakers, as if the piece itself sought to lighten everyday moments with a note of wit and gentle nostalgia. This Murano candy can be displayed on a low wooden or marble console, where glass reflections will highlight the surface’s grain. It would work well alongside simple, modern shapes—such as white ceramics or geometric glass—but also within eclectic, collector’s compositions, grouped with other vintage objects. Pairing it with 1970s-style graphics or a mirrored background can further enhance its optical lightness and playful character. The listed price refers to a single piece.
