- Set of Three Modernist Hand Blown Murano Blue Glass Candlesticks CenedeseBy CenedeseLocated in Englewood, NJA Set of three stunning midcentury Modernist hand blown Murano glass candlesticks signed by Cenedese. These candlesticks feature a tapered teardrop design made of hand blown Murano glass. Each candlesticks form features a spherical topper that is accentuated with an interior detail of blue Murano "Sommerso" technique of glass that gives a multi-dimensional design.

Mid: height: 12.75 in. Shortest: 9.75 in. Biography: In 1946, after spending his youth at the school of the great masters of the time, Gino Cenedese founded his glassworks together with the great masters Alfredo Barbini, Gino Fort, Angelo Tosi and Pietro Scaramal. Remaining sole owner in 1949 following the withdrawal of the partners, Gino Cenedese was able to combine a series of distinctive characteristics: the centuries-old tradition of Murano glass with the creativity of the 18th century masters, the destiny of being born on an island of master glassmakers with artistic sensitivity and entrepreneurial courage, technical expertise with a vocation for excellence. Under his leadership, the company soon acquired international fame for the value and exclusivity of its production, establishing itself as one of the most qualified on the island of Murano. From that moment on, the glassworks developed in two directions: on the one hand, it continued the ancient tradition of Murano art glass, with its Classic blown glasses, vases, plates, risers and Venetian chandeliers; on the other hand, it welcomed the suggestions of contemporary art, driven by the continuous search for new techniques and effects made possible by the glass material. Fruitful collaborations with artists and designers thus developed. From 1953 to 1958 with the artist and sculptor Napoleone Martinuzzi, who created female figures in solid glass, decorative bas-relief panels and large chandeliers. Again, with the painter Luigi Scarpa Croce, who created new shapes in submerged glass or, from 1954 to 1962, with designer Fulvio Bianconi, whose creations were exhibited at the Biennale in 1954. Between 1963 and 1972, the collaboration with the master glassmaker Ermanno Nason developed, who was granted great creative freedom: this allowed him to give life to an extremely varied production, always in search of the highest quality and excellence, which is still unequalled today. The collaboration with the American artist Harold Stevenson also dates back to this period: he conceived unique sculptures inspired by the changing colours of the Venetian lagoon. In 1958 Ars Cenedese began his collaboration with Antonio da Ros, who had just graduated from the Art Institute in Venice: he brought with him a vital and enthusiastic approach to glassmaking, experimenting with new colour effects in submerged glass. At the 1960 Biennale, he presented his ‘Contrappunti’, tones of submerged colours that won him the prize for the glass art section...Category

Abrams, Inc., 1991, p. 200. -Alastair Duncan, Louis Majorelle: Master of Art Nouveau Design, London, 1991, pp. 167, 183 and 200 -Majorelle: Un Art de Vivre Moderne, exh. cat., Musée de l'École de Nancy, France, 2009, p. 130 Biography : Louis Majorelle, (France; 1859 – 1926) born as Louis-Jean-Sylvestre Majorelle was a French decorator and furniture designer who manufactured his own designs, in the French tradition of the ébéniste. He was one of the outstanding designers of furniture in the Art Nouveau style, and after 1901 formally served as one of the vice-presidents of the École de Nancy. The Majorelle firm's factory was designed by famous École de Nancy architect Lucien Weissenburger (1860 – 1929) and located at 6, rue du Vieil-Aître in the western part of Nancy. In the 1880s Majorelle turned out pastiches of Louis XV furniture styles, which he exhibited in 1894 at the Exposition d'Art Décoratif et Industriel [Exposition of Decorative and Industrial Art] in Nancy, but the influence of the glass- and furniture-maker Emile Gallé (1846 – 1904) inspired him to take his production in new directions. Beginning in the 1890s, Majorelle's furniture, embellished with inlays, took their inspiration from nature: stems of plants, waterlily leaves, tendrils, dragonflies. Before 1900 he added a metalworking atelier to the workshops, to produce drawerpulls and mounts in keeping with the fluid lines of his woodwork. His studio also was responsible for the ironwork of balconies, staircase railings...Category
