This Murero handkerchief bowl cannot be done justice through photos. The bowl is streaked with pale pink waves set beneath the mesmerizing rainglass, giving the surface an abalone-esque sheen. It's very large and has two distinct layers of glass, and as a result is very heavy, despite its delicate look. It would make a fabulous centerpiece, or a very fancy fruit bowl.
Murero (not to be confused with Murano) is a glassmaker sourced out of Empoli, Italy. All of their hotsell glass is handmade, and rainglass is a common medium they use to make beautiful bowls.
Measurements:
Height: 5 inches (13 cm)
Width: 12 inches (30 cm)
Length: 14 inches (36 cm)
Diameter of base: 6 inches (15 cm)
Weight: 2 lbs, 4 oz (1.02 kg)
The bowl is in beautiful shape. Because it's handmade, the inner layer of glass varies in thickness around the rim of the bowl, so some spots look thinner than others, but the only actual imperfection I could find was a very small knick on the inside of one of the folds.
Please take a close look at the photos to verify the condition and quality of this lovely Murero bowl. I am currently not accepting refunds, but if you have any questions or would like to request additional photos prior to purchase then please don't hesitate to reach out to me.
