ONE GREEN MURANO GLASS CLOWN with BALL & BOWTIE !!!!!! ~~~~~~~~~~!!!!! HAPPY CHAP !!!!!~~~~~~~~~~ !!!!! NOT OFTEN SEEN !!!!! !!!~~~ STUNNING & BEAUTIFUL ~~~!!! Absolutely magnificent clown made of glass on the small Island of Murano, Italy. The label is the company that imported the clowns directly from Italy to the USA - J.I. Co. = Jordan Import Company. This further insures that they are original.  Condition:  Perfect with no damage at all, just some of the rough marks left when they actually make the clown.  SIZES & WEIGHT:   approximately 251 mm high x 105 mm widest point x 90 mm back to front.Weighs in at 800 grams unpacked.  All  Murano glass is made in Murano, a small island North West of the city of Venice, Italy - an island dedicated to glass production.  Murano glass is handmade with passion and skill using instruments and techniques that have been used for many centuries. It is world-renowned for being colorful, elaborate, and skillfully made. Even though the Venetians had to import their raw materials, glass production flourished and Murano soon became the world leader in its field. By the number of furnaces in the wood-built city was so great that the industry was moved to the neighbouring island of Murano, officially because of the fire hazard. In reality, this allowed the Venetians to protect their monopoly on quality glass production; and the glass-makers were virtual prisoners, threatened with death should they ever attempt to leave Murano and spill their secrets. The process of making Murano glass is a complex one.  Most Murano glass art is made using the lampworking technique.  The glass is made from silica which becomes a liquid at high temperatures.  As the glass passes from a liquid to a solid, there is an interval when the glass is soft allowing its creator to make some of the world's most unique and beautifully designed glass art.   Many people collect decorative clowns. The Murano Glass clowns are truly unique. There are tall Murano glass clowns, short clowns, thin Murano clowns, and rotund ones. Murano also has functional glass clowns that come in the forms of paperweight clowns and clowns that are bowls, decanters, and even dishes.
