About the Item

An Italian Mid-Century Modern blown glass "Rooster" designed by, Antonio Da Ros for Cenedese. The rooster with applied red comb with clear body "sommerso" technique (layering of glass) with the center a black against a heavily cased clear background. The rooster is cased in multiple layers of clear glass giving it a depth of dimension and weight. The rooster is unsigned. circa 1960s' Measurements: height: 13.25 in in. x width: 7.25 in. x depth: 4.25 in. Biography: Antonio Da Ros (Italian; 1936-2012) graduated in 1957 from the Istituto Superiore di Arti Decorative ‘CARMINI’ in Venice. In 1958, he started working in the Gino Cenedese glass factory which later became Ars Cenedese Murano. Under his art direction, the company developed various decorative lines of modern design. He introduced the technique of ‘SCAVO’ glass (A particular finish of the glass, looking like a glass brought to light from archaeological excavations), he pushed for the simplicity of the lines, the preciousness of the material and the modernity of the colors. His last works were a return to the traditional Murano techniques of and-blown glass, but re-interpreted with a contemporary sensibility. Notes: One of the most common techniques is “Sommerso”, which in Italian literally means “submerged”. This technique is used to create several layers of glass (usually with different contrasting colors) inside a single object, giving the illusion of “immersed” colors that lay on top of each other without mixing.
