A collection of four pieces of decorative art glass, comprising various forms and techniques characteristic of mid-to-late 20th-century production. The lot includes a hand-blown stylised glass sculpture of abstract wing or sail-like form, featuring a bi-colour sommerso-style technique with a vibrant emerald green rim casing a deep cranberry interior. Also included is a teardrop-shaped glass object containing internal lampwork pink floral inclusions set against a cobalt blue ground and encased in thick clear glass. The collection further features a small, heavy-walled asymmetrical bowl in deep cobalt blue glass, and a decorative compote or candle holder with a flared cobalt blue bowl on a clear glass stem with a central knop and a circular foot. No maker’s marks or labels are visible on any of the pieces; these items are in the style of mid-century Murano and European studio glass.
Stylised sculpture: width approximately 20-25cm.
