AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A refined pair of finches handmade by a master glassmaker from the island of Murano. The work represents an example of excellence in the Murano glassmaking tradition, characterized by a perfect harmony between technique and artistic creativity, a fascinating sculpture in Murano glass.
Main material: Calcedony glass
Base: Murano glass in transparent green
Dimensions: H.12 cm x L.16 cm x D.6 cm
The charm of the chromatic variety of calcedony glass with amber, blue, and green hues will capture your attention. This particular and precious glass has been used to render this work dynamic and to recall in your memory the beautiful plumage typical of finches.
The workmanship highlights the artisan's mastery in rendering naturalistic forms and in creating light and transparency effects that give life and movement to the figures; the style is inspired by Art Déco, characterized by simplified shapes that maintain an elegant balance between naturalism and decorative geometricity.
The support made with Murano glass in Transparent Green perfectly simulates a natural branch, completing the composition harmoniously and creating a chromatic balance of great visual impact.
This artwork is shipped with an authenticity certificate signed by the artist.
