Dancing Penguins Figurine Made in Murano Sticker

Big sommerso blown glass penguin figurine with sticker. The label reads ‘Hand Made Genuine Venetian Glass – Vetro Artistico Veneziano – Made in Murano Italy’. Much speculation about this label exists because it cannot be connected to a specific glass artist. Vetro Artistico Veneziano means ‘Artistic Venetian Glass’. I believe it is a generic export label. Italy requires specific labeling for export glass which changes over time. The sticker has been in use since the 1960’s but is not in modern use.

This loving penguin pair is in fine condition. Made of solid glass, blown in sommerso with black interior and colorless exterior. Big figurine weighs almost 3 lbs. Measures 7.25″ tall and 5″ wide. Perfect gift for the penguin lover.
