Murano Glass Butter Toffee and Gold Speckled Decorative Ashtray Dish

Murano glass has been synonymous with artistic excellence for over 700 years, originating in the 13th century when Venetian glassmakers were moved to the island of Murano to protect the city from fire and to safeguard their closely guarded techniques. Renowned for its vibrant colors, intricate forms, and masterful craftsmanship, Murano glass became a prized luxury across Renaissance Europe and has remained a symbol of Italian artistry ever since. This exquisite mid-century gold and toffee Murano bowl is from the 1960s to 1970s.
