This hand-blown art glass aquarium block features an internal \"reef\" scene — five pale blue fish with detailed fins and eyes swimming among vivid streaks of cobalt, yellow, and red glass suspended within a clear, softly-shaped block. This technique, closely associated with Murano glassworks, layers coloured glass canes and figures within molten crystal before shaping — a labour-intensive method producing genuine underwater depth and movement. Murano style, circa 1960s-1980s; no maker's mark present.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDIMENSIONS:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eH 11cm × W 11cm (H 4.3\" × W 4.3\")\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCONDITION:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eIn very good vintage condition, consistent with age.
