DESIGNER
Borek SIPEK
Borek Šípek (1949-2016) was a renowned Czech architect and designer, known for his unique style that combines elements of Baroque, Gothic, and postmodernism. Born in Prague, Šípek studied at the Technical University of Prague before moving to Germany, where he completed his studies in architecture at the Technical University of Stuttgart and earned a doctorate in philosophy at Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich. Šípek's career took a significant turn in the 1980s when he moved to the Netherlands. Here he established his studio and began to gain international fame for his innovative designs. He is known for his skill in working with glass, creating design pieces that have been exhibited in museums around the world. In the 1990s, Šípek returned to the Czech Republic and worked with Václav Havel, Czech president, becoming the official architect of Prague Castle. During this time, he oversaw the restoration and modernization of the castle, incorporating its distinctive style. Borek Šípek has received numerous awards and honors for his contributions to design and architecture, and is considered one of the leading exponents of contemporary Czech design. His legacy continues through his work, which remains a benchmark for modern architecture and design.

Unique Murano Glass Vase Stellato in the style Pollio Perelda for Fratelli Toso
By Fratelli Toso
Located in Tavarnelle val di Pesa, Florence
Splendid murano mosaic vase with a perfect color combination and complex mosaic technique.
The stellato finish is made by rolling canes of various color over a small blob of incandescent glass. The design is attained by using the glass scissors at the end and making flat discs with a star design. All these are then heated on a flat surface, in the old time was a stone so this technique still carries that name, lavorazione a piera.
It's heated so that it becomes an unique mosaic rectangular piece. It's then rolled with a glass disc that has the exact perimeter of the rectangular side. This makes the name that this technique is internationally known, Roll-up technique. The difficulty is to close into a cylinder the two other sides of the rectangle. After that the cylinder is closed on the opposite end, glowed to ge to the size, changing the working point with the punty technique (a puntello) and handopening to get the final shape.
An incredible sequence of glassmaking technique to get a special design.
The result is an intricate design of stars in an infinitive patchwork of color matching.
This is commonly known as Stellato vase, which was enhanced and studied by Pollio Perelda...

Italian 1940s Crystal Bowl, Milan, circa 1940
By Eliseo Mangili
Located in Milano, IT
Crystal bowl with silver and coral decorative elements
Eliseo Mangili (1890-1977)
Milan, circa 1940
It measures 4.8 in high x Ø 8.26 in; foot Ø 4.33 in (12.2 x Ø 21 cm; Ø foot 11 cm)
5.51 lb (2.55 kg)
The rounded bowl narrows and rests on a flared foot with a polygonal section in blue crystal. The bowl itself is crafted in transparent crystal and continues the polygonal motif. The base of the bowl is decorated with a series of engraved blue arches which somewhat overlap creating a corolla and with five vertical cusps of the same colour. The rim is accented with a triple cut line around the entire circumference.
A silver band representing a currant branch wraps the “waist” where the foot joins the bowl with currants made of orange coral.
The bowl features the following marks along the silver band which defines its narrowing towards the foot. These help us date the work:
1) a lozenge with the abbreviation of the province (MI); Roman fasces; the number 08. This was the mark in force after the promulgation of the law of 5 February 1934 n. 305, which provided for the use of a uniform mark for the identification of the silversmith and of the province. In this case it is the Milanese smith Eliseo Mangili during the period 1935-1944.
2) 800 without a border. Title in thousandths of silver.
Eliseo Mangili was one of the most talented goldsmiths flanking Alfredo Ravasco...
