About the Item

A rare and unique art glass sculpture or paperweight made in the shape of a mushroom. Hand crafted with exquisite millefiori murrine canes of various colors and intricate designs on a footed base with a pontil mark on the bottom. Attributed to Murano, Clichy, Baccarat or Saint Louis. Ideal for the discerning collector rare and unique art objects or desk accessories. Millefiori paperweights exploded in popularity in the 1840s-1860s, especially from French makers like Baccarat, Clichy, and Saint-Louis, reviving ancient Venetian techniques to create decorative desk accessories, though the original method of millefiori, also known as thousand flowers, glass canes dates back to Roman and Egyptian times, with Venetian masters reviving it in the 15th century before the big 19th-century boom in Europe.
