Stingray Sculpture in Multicolored Chalcedony with Crystal Base
€1.203
Capture the graceful motion of the deep sea with this magnificent Murano glass stingray. This sculpture is a masterpiece of the 'Calcedonia' technique, where mineral oxides create a mesmerizing tapestry of swirling amethysts, ocean blues, and sunset ambers across the creature's broad fins. Elevated on a hand-sculpted "frozen" crystal glass base, this piece transforms light into a brilliant display of maritime elegance.
