This is a very lovely large Murano glass deer or reindeer.
It was made in Murano, Italy - back in the 1950s or early 60s.
It is Sommerso glass and hand-blown with graduated colours of red on the head and chest area - sweeping down to a golden amber on the legs and rump section. He has applied antlers - in a pale clear blue glass - this matches his cute little tail. He has great detailing to his head - with curled lips - and even delicate little ears. He certainly has been made with great skill.
Mr Reindeer's four legs all sit on the ground - he is very stable and has no rocking when placed down on a flat surface.
I can't believe that he has over 60 years with no damage of any kind. I have taken lots of images for your inspection. I have taken into consideration his age, the quality of the modelling, his larger size, and his condition with my pricing. This is a fair one!
Dimensions: the overall height is 10 1/2 inches. The width of the deer's body is 4 3/4 inches.
