Description
Large Murano art glass paperweight in millefiori (Thousand Flowers in Italian) with a velvety satin finish.
Densely packed millefiori over a colorless interior. The interior can be seen only from the base. The canes are well-made (hand-made) with many colors featuring a single cane that differs than the others. It may be a signature cane. See image 2 lower left. The cane has a white background with black center trimmed with red loops.
Many famous Italian artists created millefiori glass objects. Our first guess of maker for this paperweight would be Toso, made for export (import to U.S.).
Big pedestal paperweight weighs 1.6 lbs., measures 4″ tall and 3½” at widest. 9½” circumference on top. Dates to the 1950’s to 1960’s, could be older.
