This Vintage Murano Green Pear Paperweight features a rounded pear silhouette and a smooth, bubbled glass texture, offering a classic aesthetic for curated office or bookshelf displays.

Hand-blown in the mid-20th century, this piece is a striking example of the bullicante technique, which creates a controlled pattern of uniform air bubbles suspended within the vibrant emerald-green glass. The heavy, leaded glass captures the light brilliantly, while the integrated clear glass stem and leaf add a touch of naturalistic detail to its otherwise sculptural form.

Designed with versatility in mind, this paperweight includes two polished flat spots—one on the base and one on the side—allowing it to be displayed either upright or at an elegant tilt. Though unmarked, the quality of the glass and the precision of the bubble distribution are hallmarks of the master glassmakers of Murano, Italy. This substantial piece serves as a timeless decorative accent, blending seamlessly with both Mid-century Modern and contemporary interiors. Its rich color and playful scale make it a sophisticated addition to a collection of art glass or a thoughtful gift for a lover of Italian craftsmanship.

Details: Measures about 6.5" in height by 4.25" wide. Has a flat spot on the bottom and the side for display. Excellent condition. Unmarked.
