A spectacular abstract Murano glass sculpture by the highly acclaimed artist Dino Rosin. This work was crafted using the rare chalcedony glass technique, in which various mineral oxides are added to glass mixtures fused under high temperatures. The results are remarkable coloration effects like those seen in this sculpture. The variation in geometric forms, contrasting translucent and opaque glass, and shifting colors make this sculpture a fascinating decorative piece, sure to draw the attention of all who see it.
Italian artist Dino Rosin was born in Venice in 1948 and raised on the island of Murano, famous for its glass blowing tradition. Rosin left formal schooling to pursue glass blowing at the age of 12. His older brother Loredano Rosin was also a prolific glass artist in Murano, and Dino Rosin joined his workshop in 1975. The Rosin brothers are credited with reviving and modernizing the Calcedonia glass process, a centuries old Murano tradition.
