Set of 6 1950s Purple-ish Hand-blown Seguso Murano Glass Fruit Plates
A set of six hand-blown purple-ish coloured Murano glass plates. Each plate is hand-blown and thus slightly different in weight and size. One plate in the set has a light etched decorative motif. Perfect as fruit plates on a summer table.
Provenance. Somewhere on Murano, behind an unmarked door, an old furnace keeps a warehouse of unopened boxes. A dear friend recently took me to this top secret location and inside, we found what Venice forgot: one‑off Murano coupes, flutes and candelabra and decanters. Inside each box were the forgotten pieces from Venice’s great glass houses: small remainders from closed furnaces and shops, carefully wrapped and then abandoned. Sitting on the cement floor, we unwrapped them one by one. Each parcel revealed a single hand‑blown coupe, prosecco flute, plate, candelabra, decanter or aperitivo glass – no pairs, no sets, just lone masterpieces.
Dimensions: H1cm x W18cm x D18cm
