Salvino Marsura Movimento mirror

This oval mirror by Salvino Marsura enchants with its softly curving silhouette and the delicate vines surrounding its iron frame. At first glance, the work reads as pink, but closer inspection reveals layers of subtle, colourful pigments flecked across its surface.

The piece is in good vintage condition.

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.
