9 VINTAGE MURANO ART GLASS MILLEFIORI PAPERWEIGHTS And Some From Ireland. Shipped with USPS Priority Mail. Fast and Free shipping always.My father loved murano glass pieces because he was an artist and he saw the beauty in them. Murano glass objects are objects of high monetary and artistic value. In the island of Murano glass artists since centuries are pushing the boundaries of traditional glass making with the most daring and innovative ideas of contemporary creation. The transparen...cy of the glass allows the incorporation of light itself as a sculptural element. Glass reflects and refracts light, accepts and transforms it by changing its color and intensity and transmitting it from one surface to another. Glass objects allow the artist to work visually with light, form and material. Unless they are broken or re-melted, glass objects last forever: they do not oxidize, rot, decay or decompose. As such glass objects of famous artists do not only preserve but increase their value over time. These pieces were purchased in the early 80’s. 2 of the paperweights have the MURANO tags. A small one with flowers has a made in Scotland tag. The large one with bubbles states that it is exclusively for Marcel Schirman. One is marked the Irish shop. The large beautiful light teal and white one is marked Elwood. 3 of them are not marked. I’m sorry I don’t know more about these.
