This whimsical, yet refined, Mid-Century Modern decorative object in the form of a stylized zebra was realized in Murano, Italy- the island off the coast of Venice renowned for centuries for its superlative glass production, circa 1960. It presents a standing zebra with a white body with vertical stripes in a dark sable brown wrapped in translucent glass. The head, mane and curved tail are also executed in clear glass. With its striking modernist form and beautiful glass quality, this objet d'art promises to add a touch of beauty to any surface that it graces. Excellent condition.
