Seven colours. One table. Gold applied by hand, ruby stones set into each bowl — a Venetian glass ceremony from the 1950s. The kind of set that was used once, then kept. Still life becomes alive.
OBJECT DETAILS: An ideal piece for collectors of Venetian art glass, interior designers sourcing statement centrepieces, or film and TV prop buyers seeking period-accurate Italian set dressing. Complete 7-piece dessert set in Murano Venetian style: one large centrepiece bowl and six individual coupes. Each piece features multicoloured glass — teal, cobalt, amber, red, green, amethyst — with applied gilt band, hand-chased foliate decoration and ruby red jewel cabochon. Clear glass stem and gilt-rimmed base. No maker's mark — consistent with unsigned Venetian workshop production of the period.
DIMENSIONS: Large bowl: H 17cm × W 18cm (H 6.7" × W 7.1") Small coupes: H 10cm × W 10cm (H 3.9" × W 3.9")
CONDITION: In very good vintage condition, consistent with age and use. Gilding is rich and intense across all pieces. Minor surface wear to gilt on some bowls. One ruby cabochon stone sits slightly lower than the others — original placement, not damage. No cracks, no chips, no restoration. Photographs form part of this description. Please review all images carefully as they document the piece's condition in full detail.
CURATOR'S NOTE: Selected for its extraordinary chromatic range — seven colours, one set, no two bowls alike. A centrepiece that transforms any table into a composition. Equally at home as a prop for period Italian or Continental European film production.
