This breathtaking glass sculpture is a work of fine art by Dino Rosin. The lower half of the form shifts from iridescent blues to deep maroons, and a flame or feather shaped protrusion creates a striking silhouette. Even the cylindrical base displays a dazzling array of colors. With its unique shape and stunning combination of opaque and clear glass, this work is sure to capture light and attention in any space.
This particular form by Rosin is often referred to by the name "Seed of Life."
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. Dino Rosin's art reflects the traditions of his family and the islands of Murano, and his lifelong passion is evident in this exquisite work of art.
