    Description

    This hand made Murano glass Diamond Dove was made by Formia for the Hamilton Collection Birds of the World, a limited edition of 7500. The series, composed of 8 different birds, was launched in 1984. This bird is approximately 9.75 inches tall (the heights of the 8 birds vary, presumably based on the natural relative sizes of the birds as well as normal variations in hand made glass). Both the Formia label and the Made in Murano label are still attached (see last photo). The bird is in excellent used condition-no chips, cracks or scratches (even almost no shelf wear on the base). Please note that, while the color of the bird’s body appears blackish in the photos, it is actually a vibrant amethyst. The bird’s eyes are red and the beak is clear glass.
