What a PEAR!


Reminiscent of the surrealist works of Magritte, these heavy Venitian Glass objects have multiple uses. They look incredible together, but are commonly used as bookends or individually as paper weights. They were made in Venice in the 1950's. This particular set is most likely by Barbini (the gold dust is a clue). Delicious!
