This Large Lino Tagliapietra Art Glass Opalescent Bowl in a Traditional Venetian Style is one of 2 pieces from this artist that I will be listing for sale with no reserve, and both were originally purchased by me 30 years ago directly from the artist (kind of). In 1989, Lino was in Chicago for a show he was having at Habatat Gallery in Chicago, and he also gave a lecture at the University of Illinois in Champaign and presented a series of demonstrations at their hot glass studios. These 2 pieces were made by him (with his assistants), and donated to the U of I Craft Guild and sold to benefit the glass program at a sale at the McKilnley foundation. That is where I purchased them from, after I watched both pieces being made a few days earlier. I had 35mm pics of both pieces being made, which is why I bought these 2, but after several moves, who know where they are now??? This is unused, only displayed, and IS UNSIGNED, BUT GUARANTEED ORIGINAL. I was offered more than my opening bid 30 years ago for this piece from someone at the sale that wanted it. 9.5" w x 8.5" tall. Super quality, including gold foil wraps on both lip and foot rims.
