14"L x 11"W x 4 1/2"H - Handmade in TurkeyThis is made by Turkish artisans at Istanbul Chic Glass Co. The amount of gold covering on this is quite impressive. The light bluish hand painting is encased by a thick, clear layer of clear glass.The piece is thick and heavy. The gold covering has some natural cracking happening. And you can see a base layer of silver behind the gold bottom. It looks completely natural. The gold and the blue were painted by hand. The darker spots you see on top with the light blue and gold is wood bark.This piece keeps getting more interesting. It is shaped like a clam shell, a gigantic clam shell.The middle of the piece is a small deep dish area that is almost 2" Deep, and is"14.5" Long and makes it a raised centerpiece. I found only a few others online, but not as nice as this. So, I would consider it rare, and it is definitely vintage. If you want your area to look very high end, then this centerpiece will do the job. Don't miss out!14.5"L x 11"W x2"D
