Lot Description:

Sabino Art Glass Opalescent Bird Figurine 

Sabino refers to Marius-Ernest Sabino (1878-1961), a French artist known for his Art Deco glass creations, particularly opalescent glass objects like the bird figurine shown in the image. 

Key Information about Sabino Glass:

  • Founder and Era: Marius-Ernest Sabino established his own glass manufacture after World War I, with his Art Glass production flourishing during the Art Deco period, often compared to Lalique. 
  • Distinctive Material: Sabino is renowned for his opalescent glass, which he developed by experimenting with a unique chemical formula in 1925, resulting in a distinctive blue-white hue that resembles ice in low light and reveals golden tones under brighter illumination. 
  • Creations: The firm produced a variety of items, including lamps, vases, figurines (like animals such as birds, poodles, pheasants, fish, and snails), and architectural lighting. 
  • Production Location: Sabino glass was made in Paris, France. 
  • Discontinuation: Production ceased during World War II. 

Measures 1.5 inches tall.
