$5,475.00

This exquisite Mid-Century Modernist reverse-molded portrait sculpture, hand-blown in Murano, Italy, circa 1980, is a masterful work of art by the renowned glass artist Pino Signoretto. Crafted with exceptional precision, the sculpture showcases Signoretto’s unparalleled skill in the Venetian glassmaking tradition, as well as his innovative approach to form and texture.

Composed of Murano glass in smoked lavender, the piece exudes an ethereal, otherworldly quality. The subtle, smoky lavender hue shifts and transforms based on the surrounding light, adding depth and intrigue to the piece. The reverse-molded technique creates an extraordinary three-dimensional likeness, with features rendered in fascinating detail while obscured through the thickness and body of the glass, offering a striking combination of physicality and translucence. The play between negative and positive space draws the viewer in, encouraging contemplation from every angle.

Signed by Pino Signoretto, this sculpture not only reflects the distinctive qualities of mid-century Italian artistry but also solidifies its provenance as a work by one of the most celebrated glass masters. Signoretto’s works are celebrated for their fusion of traditional Murano techniques with modern sensibilities, and this piece is a testament to his ability to push the boundaries of the medium.

Ideal for collectors of fine art glass, this sculpture functions as both a standalone masterpiece and a conversation starter in any interior space. Whether displayed on a pedestal or within a curated modernist collection, it brings a sophisticated and timeless elegance that highlights the enduring beauty of Murano glass craftsmanship. Etched signature on the lower edge of the base denoting the maker. In Excellent Vintage Condition.
