Large Pearlescent Pedestal Fruit Bowl Attributed to Tomarro, Murano Style – Caramello Series
A striking and substantial mid-century modern fruit bowl, attributed to Tomarro and crafted in the Murano style as part of the Caramello series.
This impressive piece features a heavy, 1 cm thick glass construction with four flowing waves and curves, rendered in a pearlescent champagne shade with a delicate pale pink centre. The rim is finished in clear glass, adding a refined touch to the overall design. The pedestal stand consists of a large, clear glass ball set atop a slightly raised disc, providing both stability and elegance. The bowl is unmarked, consistent with many Murano-style pieces from the era.
Very good vintage condition with no chips or cracks; scratches from usage at bottom of the bowl and not noticeable when filed with fruit. There are some minor nibbles at the base of the bowl, likely from the manufacturing process, as well as a few bubbles and internal marks typical of hand-blown glass.
A beautiful piece to enhance any table, whether displayed on its own or filled with fruits or nibbles. An excellent choice for a 3rd wedding anniversary or wedding gift, and ideal as a centrepiece for a conference table.
