Salvino Marsura Edera plant stand

The Edera plant stand winds in a graceful vertical climb, animated by hand-forged ivy leaves that curl around a central iron stem. Raw metal is transformed into fine botanical forms in this delicately balanced piece.

The piece is in good condition, featuring patination true to its age.

Salvino Marsura (1938–2020) was an artisan metalworker. After learning his craft in the dynamic workshop of sculptor and ‘iron poet’ Toni Benetton, he spent more than 60 years producing sculpture, furniture, objects and memorials in his hometown of Treviso, Italy.

Marsura’s ironwork art and furniture relishes in the manual aesthetic of the forge, giving voice to the raw metal and the processes of its manipulation including sweltering heat, hammering, bending and welding. His distinctive hand marries elements of brutalism and traditional decorative arts.
