| Eagle Description: | The eagle has always been a symbol of courage, freedom, and pride. This original Dino Rosin glass sculpture is no exception to the rule. This cultural icon faces forward, assuming a defiant and regal stance. The eyes, expertly created out of the Calcedonia glass, stare back at the viewer, daring him to approach. After forging this bold sculpture, Dino Rosin deftly cut away a piece of the “Eagle” body, allowing for a new perspective of the stunning Calcedonia. The sharp edges of the piece serve to reinforce the strength inherent in this bird of prey, while the mesmerizing and unique colors of the Calcedonia bring movement to Dino Rosin’s work. As with all of Dino Rosin’s Calcedonia glass works, no two sculptures will ever contain the same colors. The distinguishing colors of Calcedonia, comparable to the stripes in a zoned agate, are created through the introduction of silver nitrate to crystal clear glass. Patterns found in each Dino Rosin sculpture cannot be controlled since the colors depend solely upon the chemical reaction of each batch. As a result, every sculpture - including "Eagle" - has the added element of chance upon that of unparalleled mastery.
Dino Rosin is a true "Maestro" from the celebrated glass art island of Murano, Italy. Rosin continues his family's tradition of glass blowing that dates back generations. "Eagle" is a stunning example of this world famous artist's skill and lineage, with a combination of clear and "Calcedonia" glass, a lost art rediscovered by Loredano Rosin, Dino's predecessor and older brother. Rosin's studio produces the clearest and most colorful Calcedonia glass in the world. Impossible to duplicate, each piece is completely unique in its color. |
