Description
A circa 1930 ‘scalpellato’ handcut glass dish designed by Pietro Chiesa for Fontana Arte. The beautiful aquamarine coloured glass was produced using the ‘scalpellato’ or ‘chiselled’ technique and has a circular concave cut-out at its centre. The ‘grid’ etched base, which is synonymous with earlier Fontana production, is visible through the piece and it is signed ‘FX’ discreetly on its side. This wonderful dish was an important part of the Fontana Arte catalogue in the 1930s.
