Barovier & Toso Large Tessere Ambra Suspension Clear Incalmo Black Bead Murano
About the Item
An extremely large suspension piece. This design is univerversally attributed to Barovier & Toso and is composed of a beautiful crossed tessere ambra design.
The central design is surrounded by a clear incalmo and a black bead at the lip.
Though there are several scattered bubbles here and there, they do not diminish the beauty of the piece, as can be seen in the photos.
The design is very large, with a 70 cm 28" diameter, and it is very heavy.
The hardware connotes the age of the piece and upon request it will be restored or replaced. The same goes for the electrical parts.
The quality is not as superb as one you could see on the Ercole Barovier tessere vase, so possibly it’s a production line piece. The glass is heavy and the clear incalmo is probably is a mezzo incalmo (when one part that joins, in this case the tessere part, is shaped as a vase and the other is a blob of glass). This would also imply a production line.
The lip bead, called in Murano morisa is thick and completes the piece nicely.
When lit the pattern is highly visible. Perhaps a mirrored bulb would further enhance the beauty of the piece.

- Barovier et Toso Attributed, 14 Pulegoso Leaves Reticello Bowl, 1940s, MuranoBy Barovier&TosoLocated in Tavarnelle val di Pesa, FlorenceSculptural chandelier with a unique combination of reticello and Pulegoso finis. The reticello bowl what indicates the decade. It's made by overlapping two filigree bowls spiralizer in opposite directions. Before Carlo Scarpa and Dino Martens works in the 1940s, reticello was made without bubbles in the middle of each square of clear glass resulting by the nesting. It's simply because it was considered a flaw to see the bubbles. On the next decade, the overlapping was done on the Piera as the bubble trapped by the canes was then considered a plus. The 14 leaves have a central striped clear stem and the feathers are made in Pulegoso. My friend Sergio Rossi, master of Murano, when he saw the picture said "the times when Pulegoso was made in the Crucible". Full batch of Pulegoso was made by Barovier for the lighting and Venini or Seguso for accessories. The Pulegoso finish, from puleghe (chips, the chemical dust that is added to create an infinitive number of bubbles inside the glass mass) is a signature of the Barovier chandelier. Reticello has white filigree...Category
