Salvino Marsura sheet iron planter with twisted handles


Italy, 1970s


SOLD 11.23

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.

The crude grace of iron is revealed in this planter whose form resembles a simplified ionic column with curling volutes and sturdy capital. The curving geometries and textures surface will emulate plant forms exquisitely.

It comes in good vintage condition, with the metal showing some signs of patina and oxidisation across all surfaces. The artist’s signature is engraved on the surface.
