Vintage 1970s or 1980s Mid Century Modern style Renato Anatra signed with a signature and Vetri Murano sticker with the number 043 Italy "Lovers" Embrace Sculpture for Oggetti (See the label).In the pictures it appears that the glass is clear but in certain lighting their appears to be a light lavender color so I believe there is some Neodymium or Alexandrite in the glass. The sculpture is 12" tall and museum quality. It is in excellent vintage condition free of any cracks, chips, or repairs. There are some very light scratches on the base which are to be expected given the age of the piece. Renato Anatra is the co-founder of Arte80 with Andrea Tagliapietra, and has been one of the most prolific glass sculptors in Murano. His artworks mainly consisting in sculptures made of clear glass are incredible masterpieces, thought to be shown in public. Anatrà has been one of the most important exponents of contemporary Murano glass sculpture. Some of his artworks have been exhibited in museums around the world, like for example his “Guitar in polychrome glass” created in Murano in 1960 is exhibited at Metropolitan Museum of Arts in New York. He retired at the beginning of the 2000s. The bowl will be shipped double boxed and fully insured.
