As light reflects and refracts, the uniquely speckled petals of the flower echo over the surface. The deep blue translucent glass is bordered by a scalloped edge of opaque purple glass, creating a dazzling contrast. With its unique geometric form and remarkable design, this is a stunning work of art, best viewed in natural light.

Italian artist Dino Rosin was born in Venice in 1948 and raised on the island of Murano, famous for its glass blowing tradition. Rosin left formal schooling to pursue glass blowing at the age of 12. His older brother Loredano Rosin was also a prolific glass artist in Murano, and Dino Rosin joined his workshop in 1975. The Rosin brothers are credited with rediscovering the secrets of Calcedonia glass, a Murano tradition that had been lost for nearly 500 years.
