This is an attractive handmade frosted clear glass miniature swan figurine set on a repurposed cut crystal drop from a large chandelier. It looks better than it sounds! It is accompanied by a matching pair of miniature handmade filigree lamp-work swans, which are also very nice.


I would describe the miniature swan figurine as very well formed by hand, using lamp-working techniques. It has been frosted after production and two black eyes then applied. It is set on a high quality, hand cut crystal drop, which has a small hole at one end for its original purpose of hanging (probably in a chandelier). The swan figure is about 4 cm in height and the crystal drop is 6.4 cm in length and 4.4 cm in width.


Also included are two other small swan figurines. These are each about 3.6 cm in length and 3.5 cm in height. They are both made with the filigree lamp-work technique, where thin glass canes are melted or bent with a blow torch and a figure is then built up. It is quite a skill.


All three are in excellent condition, with no apparent damage.
