Vtg Murano Hand Blown Glass Bears (2) Teal Blue Green UV Reactive Italy Labeled

Beautiful pair of Murano made art glass bear figurines. These lovely hand blown bears are a Teal (blue/green) color. They are expertly made and remind me of adorable Gummy Bears. These cuties contain manganese and glow under a 365N black light / UV 365 light. The pictures that show the green glow were taken in the dark with a 365UV flashlight pointed at them.

Please note manganese will not glow under a standard 395 UV/black light. They stand 5 inches tall (one is just a hair under 5), the bases measure 3.25 inches front to back, one base measures 2.5 inches side to side and the other measures 2 inches. They weigh 2 pounds 7 ounces together (1 pound 3 ounces and 1 pound 4 ounces). There is a remnant of a genuine Murano label on one.

I have been able to identify this label and included a snapshot of an undamaged one in the photos. No chips, cracks, scratches or damage found. Some light scratching and wear on the bottoms consistent with age. Please view all photos closely, and don't hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns.
