Salvino Marsura floorstanding vide poche

This floorstanding shallow dish used to hold small personal items is interpreted by Marsura as two intertwining blooms that are perched on long stems. 

The surface of the metal features signs of pigment and 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.
