A spectacular Murano glass sculpture by acclaimed artist Dino Rosin, with a particularly unique twisting form. Affixed to a black cylindrical base signed by the artist, the sculpture begins as a rhombus shape that tapers off into a serpentine coil. With its sinuous silhouette and shifting array of colors, a simple change in perspective utterly transforms this piece. Be sure to display it near a window, where this remarkable glass work can catch the light!
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 rediscovering the secrets of Calcedonia glass, a Murano tradition that had been lost for nearly 500 years.
