Alfredo Villasana
He was a Taxco artist & was the manager for both William Spratling & Hector Aguilar in the 1930's, before branching off on his own. Villasana became known for doing some of the finest repousse work that you may ever come across, as well as designing some of the best clamper style bracelets that came out of Taxco back in the day. I personally have many favorite Taxco artisans that were known during the Mexican Silver Renaissance Days, but do have to admit that Villasana sits high on the list for his precise repousse work that are truly time consuming works of art!!

Salviati & Co. Italy 1920 Murano Soffiato Blown Charger In Amber And Blue Glass
By Salviati
Located in Miami, FL
Soffiato glass charger plate designed by Salviati & Co.
Great decorative piece, created at the Murano island in Venice Italy by the Salviati & Co. This flat charger was crafted during the art deco period back in the early 1920 by the blown glass process. Made up in transparent amber glass with the upper rim accented by a stripe made up from blue pate d verre.
Soffiato
Glassblowing or Soffiato in Italian, is a glass forming technique that involves inflating molten glass into a bubble with the aid of a blowpipe. A person who blows glass is called a glassblower, glassmith, or gaffer. The word come from soffietta, a tool used as a puffer to further inflate a vessel after it has been removed from the blowpipe and is attached to the pontil. It consists of a curved metal tube attached to a conical nozzle. The glassblower reheats the vessel, inserts the nozzle into its mouth so that the aperture is blocked, and then inflates the vessel by blowing through the tube.
Salviati & Co.
The company was founded by Antonio Salviati, which born in Vicenza in 1816 and died in Venice in 1890. In 1859, together with Enrico Podio and Lorenzo Radi he opened a glassware and mosaic boutique called Salviati Antonio...

Green and Blue Vintage Ceramic Pitcher
Located in Milano, IT
Wonderful vintage blue and green ceramic pitcher, designed n he 1950's of fine Italian manufacture. Under the base is its place of origin, Italy.
The pitcher has a wider bottom that narrows as it goes towards the spout. There is a sleeve in the center of the body that allows for a firm grip on the pitcher. The spout opens very smoothly, preventing drinks from spilling out.
The pitcher is totally made of finely crafted ceramic in white, light blue, blue and green, very quirky and elegant.
The jug is suitable as a serving item but also as a beautiful flower vase.
