About the Item

This shows the Classic Murano figurine head with the casque hair position. The bowl has been waved to hot attach the two busts that are connected to the bowls also with the arms in a figurehead position. Bowl is in clear and rest in black glass heavily iridised. Hairs have gold leaf applied. The attribution to Ercole Barovier is indirect as comes from the same lot of the other Ercole Barovier pieces. Very rare with the nude body (typical of figurehead). Owner called it Coppa Moresca.

Barovier et Toso Attributed, 14 Pulegoso Leaves Reticello Bowl, 1940s, Murano
By Barovier&Toso
Located in Tavarnelle val di Pesa, Florence
Sculptural chandelier with a unique combination of reticello and Pulegoso finis. The reticello bowl what indicates the decade. It's made by overlapping two filigree bowls spiralizer in opposite directions. Before Carlo Scarpa and Dino Martens works in the 1940s, reticello was made without bubbles in the middle of each square of clear glass resulting by the nesting. It's simply because it was considered a flaw to see the bubbles. On the next decade, the overlapping was done on the Piera as the bubble trapped by the canes was then considered a plus. The 14 leaves have a central striped clear stem and the feathers are made in Pulegoso. My friend Sergio Rossi, master of Murano, when he saw the picture said "the times when Pulegoso was made in the Crucible". Full batch of Pulegoso was made by Barovier for the lighting and Venini or Seguso for accessories. The Pulegoso finish, from puleghe (chips, the chemical dust that is added to create an infinitive number of bubbles inside the glass mass) is a signature of the Barovier chandelier. Reticello has white filigree...
