About the Item

A rare and exceptional Murano glass sculpture by the acclaimed Alfredo Barbini, created in the 1950s for Weil Ceramics Glass Co. This striking piece depicts three stylized parrots, masterfully crafted using Barbini’s signature sommerso technique. The vibrant combination of cobalt blue, moss green, and radiant gold is enhanced with gold leaf aventurine, resulting in a mesmerizing, multi-dimensional effect that captures and reflects light beautifully. Each parrot is sculpted with distinct crests and poised postures, bringing a sense of elegance and vibrancy to the composition. The bold color palette and sculptural form are reflective of the opulence of the Hollywood Regency and Art Deco design periods, while the piece retains a timeless, modern appeal. This sculpture is further distinguished by its original sticker, confirming its authenticity and provenance. In good vintage condition, with minor wear consistent with age, this is a coveted addition to any collection of Murano glass and mid-century design.
