Description
A charming pair that embodies the playful yet refined spirit of 1970s Venetian design. These two ponies are crafted from high-quality solid Murano glass , a technique that gives them a striking sculptural texture and a deep luster.
The color is a deep, almost bottle-like green that catches the light, revealing emerald hues. The design is highly stylized, characterized by curved lines and soft volumes, typical of the production of that decade. Particular attention was given to the manes, worked with raised details that contrast with the smoothness of the body.
The style clearly recalls Seguso 's celebrated aesthetic (Archimede Seguso was known for his solid glass animals), making these pieces iconic examples of the era's glass art. Versatile and striking, they're perfect for enhancing a bookcase or console table with a touch of contemporary Italian art.
