Murano Glass Tray, Torchon and Gold, Lady and Knight

Description

Bring the romantic and timeless charm of Venice into your home with this splendid vintage Murano glass tray, an authentic jewel of Italian craftsmanship dating back to the evocative 1950s and 1960s. This exclusive piece combines the mastery of the renowned Venetian glassmakers with the elegance of a classic and sophisticated design.

The tray immediately catches the eye thanks to its precious frame: a solid border of clear glass masterfully crafted in "Torchon" (twisted rope) style, embellished with luminous gold dust inclusions (aventurine technique) that give the object a warm and luxurious brilliance. At the center of this luminous ring, a poetic "Gallant Scene" inspired by the 18th century comes to life: the silhouettes of a Lady and a Knight, captured in a tender moment of courtship in the shade of a tree. This delicate illustration is created with a refined satin etching technique on a brilliant mirrored background, creating a fascinating play of reflections and depth.

Completing this magnificent work are two finely chiselled gilded metal handles, which add a touch of splendor in pure Hollywood Regency style, while a solid wooden base on the back ensures stability and protection. Perfect to display as a serving tray for liqueurs and precious crystal glasses, or as an elegant valet tray and centerpiece to adorn the entrance or living area.

Insured and tracked shipping.
