Turbulence in Aubergine is a unique glass sculpture by the British artist, Anthony Scala. Sculpted and handblown, this artwork is created from very thick glass which is filled with a multitude of trapped bubbles. Each one sparkles and catches the light, all enhanced by the intense yet fading colour of the main form. About this collection in the artist's own words; "My Turbulence pieces have always been a way for me to step back from my precise optical work and re-engage with the material on a more ‘physical’ level. The colours I choose are always soft, muted shades which act as the perfect backdrop for the drama and movement of the effervescence. The shapes are unfussy so as not to detract from the light play given off by the myriad of bubbles. The pieces are blown incredibly thickly. This is to maximise the depth of the glass and impart an intensity of movement to the effervescence captured within each piece" With a career in glass now spanning over 20 years, Scala creates art works that can only be described as acts of precision. As equally beautiful as they are meticulously created and despite being a hugely skilled glass blower, it is with cold working that Scala excels. Initially qualified as an architectural model maker, it was during this time that Scala learnt many disciplines that would be equally relevant to and ultimately inform his practice today. His passion for glass was discovered however during an apprenticeship with Peter Layton at his studio at London Glassblowing. The beginning of a long standing association for him with this acclaimed studio. In 2005 at the age of 27, Scala won the prestigious 'Glass Sellers Award' (other recipients have included Alison Kinnard, Colin Reid, Richard Jackson, and Bob Crooks...

Great color combination. The filigree/filigrana glass is a cane with a color inside. Usually clear on the outside with a core in colored or opaque glass. Most used are white or black filigrana. This is a self-made filigrana as there is a green coating over an Amethyst core, making the Amethyst almost a dark bronze color. The other cane is clear with amethyst. The twisting (mena in muranese, or ritorto) makes a lay with the back of the vase almost as it is a reticello (once called filigrana, so that explains the term mezza filigrana). The special color combination was then rolled over pure gold leaf, highlighted with the iridescence smoke and then covered with another layer of high temperature glass to make the gold vivid. The vase is quite large and carries a squared mouth, in a way of Carlo Scarpa mezza filigrana vases...

A striking and highly collectible Murano art glass sculpture by Renato Anatra, depicting two lovers in an intimate embrace. Dating to approximately 1970–1980, this impressive hand-blown sculpture stands approximately 30.5 cm (12 inches) high and is an excellent example of Anatra's distinctive approach to contemporary figurative glass sculpture. The sculpture depicts a male and female figure standing closely together in full frontal contact, their bodies elongated and simplified into an elegant, almost abstract composition. Their hands meet gently at their sides as the figures lean towards one another in a kiss. Executed in beautifully clear, transparent glass, the sculpture has an extraordinary sense of lightness and purity. The simplified human forms allow the surrounding light to become part of the work, creating changing reflections and layers of transparency as it is viewed from different angles. The figures rise from a substantial cylindrical opaque glass base, providing a strong visual foundation for the transparent sculpture above. Importantly, the piece retains its original “Vetri Artistici Art ’80 Murano – Made in Italy” label to the side of the base and is additionally signed by the artist, with an incised: “R. Anatra” to the underside. The combination of the original label and incised signature makes this an especially desirable example for collectors of Renato Anatra and post-war Murano art glass. Measurements Height: 30.5 cm (12 in.) Width: 7.6 cm (3 in.) Depth: 6.4 cm (2½ in.) Weight: approximately 1.3 kg Condition Excellent vintage condition. No chips, cracks, repairs or significant scratches noted. There are only a few very minor shelf-wear marks consistent with age and previous display. The original Arte ’80 label remains present. Please examine all photographs carefully, which form an integral part of the condition description. Renato Anatra & Arte ’80 Renato Anatra was an important figure in the development of contemporary Murano glass sculpture and was associated with the Arte ’80 studio, which he co-founded with fellow glass artist Andrea Tagliapietra. Anatra became particularly recognised for his sculptural works in clear glass, often reducing the human figure and other subjects to elegant, highly stylised forms that exploit the transparency, reflection and optical qualities of Murano glass. His work has received international recognition, and examples of his glass sculpture have entered important collections and exhibitions. Among the works associated with his career is a polychrome glass guitar...
