he object is a very pretty Murano free form hand blown shallow bowl that contains gold flecks and made from many colorful rods that resulted in the trademark Murano millefiori design. I visited an authentic Murano factor on Murano Island. The trip on the speedboat that picked up myself and my fellow tourists from St Mark's Square to Murano Island was almost as exciting as seeing artisans at work demonstrating the art of blown glass using glass rods. The authentic Murano glass objects are far superior to products produced by Chinese made products with fake Murano labels, The photographs are not able to show the brilliance of the gold flakes within the clear glass. The color hues give off a pastel appearance. The base has to be flattened for it to stand, so the evidence of hand blown has to be polished off.
