For some history on the artist, Luigi’s biggest influence came from Gino Cenedese & Son, Murano’s finest and oldest glass company’s most historic and important collections, the Vetro Scavo series. This series is famous for glass creations of plates, vases, centerpieces, lamps and animals which are inspired by excavations of ancient Roman glassware and pottery to made the specific look. These pieces have a style that is obtained through the salts and oxides used during the production process. Once the glass reaches a certain temperature, the materials react to the heat creating the scavo glass, a rusted opaque look used by many Murano glass artists. The feel and texture and somewhat sandy/salty. This sculpture has no chips or cracks on it. Please see the small scuff in the photo. Museum quality pair of rare vintage scavo pink swans by Glass Master Luigi Mellara.

 

The tallest swan is 16″ height, 11″ length, 6″ width.

 

In very good condition. No signs of wear.

Our Condition Rating

Excellent – We almost never rate anything as excellent because to us, excellent means brand new and still in packaging. If we’ve only removed it from the box for photography, it still receives a "very good" rating.

Very Good – This is where most of our items fall. To us, this means as close to excellent as possible: museum-quality, with no imperfections unless noted (and even then, only very minor ones).

Good – Acceptable. Worth owning, especially if it’s difficult to find in better condition.

Fair – Rough condition. Only rated fair if the item has substantial historical value or is salvage-worthy.
