Murano DA ROS Cenedese Alexandrite Pink Bird Bowl

HUGE and RARE Murano Cased ALEXANDRITE and PINK SOMMERSO Art Glass Figural BIRD Centerpiece Bowl!!!! Documented as Antonio Da Ros for Vetreria Gino CENEDESE, circa 1961 (from exhibition photograph in Marc Heiremans - Murano Glass book, page 180). This piece is very thick and heavy and very unusual bowl form. The Neodymium glass changes color, as shown in the photos. It is a bluish purple under normal light, but changes to a green color under the new energy efficient lights. On the bottom is has a Fusha Pink that goes up to the tail. The bowl itself is very deep and taller at 1 side. It weighs almost 10 pounds! I did notice that the very tip of the beak has a nick to it. Mentioned for accuracy. There is NO other damage (chips, nicks, or impact marks). In EXCELLENT Condition!!!

Measures 13" long x 8" tall x 5 1/2" wide ….. International Buyers WELCOMED!!! ........ Questions? Don’t hesitate to ask!
