This Murano glass goose figurine from the 1960s is an example of Italian art glass craftsmanship, mouth-blown on the island of Murano. The sculpture features an elongated, slender form with a pronounced, upward-curving neck and a stylized, minimalist head, reflecting the aesthetics of mid-century modern. The translucent, cool yellow color is most concentrated in the body and gradually fades into clear glass at the upper neck, head, and decorative base, which resembles stylized feathers or water ripples. The surface is highly glossy, with smooth, organic transitions and delicate details such as the beak and tail. There are no visible seams, confirming its handmade origin in the Murano tradition. The condition is described as good—a minor chip is present at the tip of the tail, with no other visible signs of wear or discoloration. This sculpture carries the voice of 1960s Italy, when Murano glass defined the artistic language of interior décor. The slender silhouette and transparent yellow seem to evoke the light of a Venetian morning, as shadows gently play on the lagoon’s waters. With its minimalist form and subtle color gradation, the figurine embodies an era when craftsmanship met modern simplicity; every detail—from the arched neck to the etched feathers—reminds us that glass can capture both movement and tranquility. For interior arrangements, the figurine can be placed on a low console or displayed in a glass cabinet where natural light will accentuate the yellow gradients and mirror-like sheen. It works well as part of a collector’s set with other 1960s objects, especially ceramics or glass in contrasting hues. Pairing it with minimalist furniture or an upholstered armchair in neutral tones would allow the Murano piece to serve as a gentle accent, evoking the atmosphere of Italian modernism.
