About the Item

The 1970s Modernist Purple Scavo Murano Glass Round Bowl by Cenedese is a striking example of mid-century Italian glass artistry. The bowl embodies the sleek, minimalist lines and bold color characteristic of modernist design. Its form is simple and elegant, allowing the unique texture and color to take center stage. The dominant color is a rich purple, a popular choice in 1970s design that adds a vibrant yet sophisticated touch to the piece. The Scavo technique involves treating the surface of the glass with various chemicals and powders to create a matte, weathered finish that mimics the appearance of ancient, excavated glass. This gives the bowl a distinctive, textured surface with a slightly rough feel and a visually captivating, aged look. The bowl is hand-blown, a process that ensures every piece is unique. The hand-blowing technique allows for subtle variations in shape and texture, adding to the bowl's charm and individuality, the pieces is acid signed by Cenedese. The signature is a mark of authenticity and quality.This bowl by Cenedese is not just a utilitarian object but a piece of art that reflects the ingenuity and creativity of Murano glassmakers. Its modernist design, combined with the ancient Scavo technique, makes it a timeless piece that continues to captivate collectors and art enthusiasts. The bowl it's in perfect condition.
