About the Item
A stunning Alfredo Barbini Murano glass Conchiglia shell sculpture, crafted in Italy in the 1950s. This elegant shell-shaped piece features a harmonious blend of carmel and white tones, encased in a clear glass layer with the signature bullicante (controlled bubble) technique and exquisite gold flecks throughout. The delicate ribbed texture further enhances its organic, ocean-inspired form.
Barbini, a renowned master of Murano glass, was known for his skillful blending of textures and colors, and this piece is a true testament to his artistry. The shell’s soft tones and shimmering gold flecks make it a perfect addition to Mid-Century Modern, coastal, or beach-inspired decor.
