Archimede Seguso Murano Opaline Glass Paperweight with Birds

A Murano glass paperweight by Archimede Seguso, featuring two stylised birds perched between delicate branches, encased in opaline glass with a subtle internal glow. The glass displays Seguso’s characteristic depth and finesse, where the opalescence shifts with the light.

Note: there is a visible crease/manufacturing fault across the dome, original to the making, which does not detract from its presence but should be considered.
