This is a large and chunky glass animal. It takes the form of a quirky - almost cartoon-like camel.   

The camel is a Bactrian camel - with two humps. The interior of the model is a bright yellow colour to suggest the colour of the camel, and this is then cased with clear glass. He has black glass eyes and a big black nose.   

These glass animals (especially the camels) are difficult to source - and this is reflected in my price. This one is certainly mid-century Italian / Murano in origin. These stylised glass animals were distributed for sale by Jordan's Importing Company (JiCo). 

JICO was an American-based import company, that imported Italian Murano and Florentine glass to the USA between the mid-1950s - early 1970s. So not quite sure how this piece ended up in Scotland. 

Mr Camel is a nice size for display and measures: 6 inches in height. The length is 6 inches and the depth is 3 1/4 inches. He looks great on display.  

My glasswork is in excellent vintage condition and has no condition issues. My price for this is a fair one - given its quality and rarity.
