Italian Etched Murano Glass Tray in the Manner of Ercole Barovier, 1950s

$450.00

An Italian Murano glass tray in the manner of Ercole Barovier from the 1940s. The rectangular form is composed of etched mirror glass, its central panel engraved with a romantic Victorian scene, figures in period dress set within scrolling foliage and ornamental flourishes.

The perimeter is framed by a vibrant red and clear twisted glass border, the rope-like motif adding dimension and movement to the surface. Brass handles at either end provide a warm contrast to the cool mirrored plane.

About Ercole Barovier
The Barovier dynasty traces its roots to 1295, when Jacobello Barovier, a master glassblower, began transforming molten sand and minerals into incandescent works of art. For centuries, the family maintained its legacy, crafting exquisite glass pieces until the mid-20th century, when it merged with another renowned glassworks to become Barovier & Toso. This evolution reflects a commitment to artistry and tradition that endures to this day.
