Salvino Marsura Crisantemo bowl

Distinct petals of a blooming chrysanthemum unfurl gracefully around the perimeter of this animated bowl by Salvino Marsura.

The piece is in good vintage condition and features fragments of pigment.

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.
