Vilca Italian Crystal Glass Dog

Vilca Crystal was established in 1960 by Franco Brogi who in 1947, to gain new knowledge, went to Waterford in Ireland to learn the trade. Since then, Vilca has collaborated with many renowned glass and crystal designers to design and produce beautiful sculptures in glass.

This crystal dog is an example of Vilca’s art. As you look at this piece, you can interpret it in your own way. This dog could look content and patient - or perhaps look guilty because it’s been naughty. Whatever your interpretation, this piece is beautiful.

This piece in excellent condition. This piece is clear, brilliant and transparent. There is one flaw. At the end of his tail it is rough indicating a possible chip. It is virtually unnoticeable, but it is there.

The artist has signed the piece at the base. The base also has four felt pads to protect surfaces.

It measures 4 3/4” tall and about 7” long.
