Excellent example of Ercole Barovier's experimental "rugiadoso" technique, in which "the internal surface is iridescent and sprinkled with ground glass. The 'dew' effect is achieved by applying ground glass particles and gold leaf to hot colorless glass. Re-heating of the object ensures its adherence to the surface" ("Art of the Barovier," Marina Barovier, p. 144). Squares of gold fused into the interior further highlight the technique. The outside of the shell shaped bowl is smooth and iridized. An important, circa 1940s signature creation by Barovier.
This large bowl measures 13.5" in length, 7.5" wide, and stands 4.5" tall. In excellent condition. Unsigned. Examples of this bowl can be seen in "Art of the Barovier," Marina Barovier, p. 144 & 145. Domestic US shipping, handling, and insurance for this item will be $40. For more fine vintage Murano glass, please visit our website www.PlanetGlass.net. |
