salviati murano - Chalice - Murano glass

Stunning little Murano piece from the Salviati furnace, with a finely worked bowl, a broad foot, and, above all, a figural stem in cobalt blue and gold that is its most distinctive feature; an artistic Venetian glass goblet, handmade in the twentieth century, probably in the second half of the century. A historic Venetian production, with a long tradition of decorative glass. The presence of aventurine, with its sparkling metallic particles, is in keeping with the Venetian glassmaking tradition; Salviati and Barovier were considered the height of Murano glassmaking excellence at the time. A museum-worthy example.
