Mid/late 20th-century Murano-style sommerso glass toucan sculpture

Hand-blown art glass toucan sculpture

There is a glass fissure that seems to be from the making of it as there's no change to the exterior finish, along with a spot on one side of its body that is more mate.

• Primary Colors: light lime-y green that fades into an orange then clear body, amber-to-orange beak with yellow undertones, brown glass base
