Glass Bowl by Barbini
About the Item
Black glass bowl using the Scavo technique.
The Scavo technique was introduced in the 1950s by Alfredo Barbini and was designed to imitate the effect caused by long periods spent underground, typical of glass objects found during archaeological digs.
During manufacture a mixture of powders is dispensed on the surface of the object at a temperature of 800C. These adhere and give an effect of both opaqueness and colouring. The piece is then heated again to enhance the effect.
Literature: Murano 900 by Franco Deboni.

Alfredo Barbini
Alfredo Barbini (1912–2007), a glass artist born in 1912 on the islands of Murano in the lagoon of Venice, Italy, was one of Murano's leading figures of the 20th century. His parents were members of families, which had been prominent in the glassmaking industry on Murano for generations as glassblowers and beadmakers.
