                    Est: €1,400 - €1,500

                    DINO MARTENS (Italy, 1894 - 1970) for Avem. Vase of the Byzantine series. Blown glass "tutti-fruti" or "end-of-the day" technique. Catalogued in "Avem. Arte Vetraria Muranese-Artistic Production 1932-1972". It presents a small blowing defect in one of the crests. Measurements: 41 x 26 x 12 cm. The Byzantine series became one of the most commercial and durable series of the glass factory Avem. Made from seemingly randomly inlaid scraps - which provided popular denominations such as "end-of-the day" or "tutti-frutti" - this technique was applied in a wide variety of objects, both artistic and domestic. Despite the appearance of technical simplicity, these five-layer vases required the execution of a skilled master blower. Introduced in 1953, new models were added in the following years. Dino Martens was an Italian painter and designer particularly known for his work in glass trained at the Accademia di Belle Arti . He exhibited his paintings at the Venice Biennale (1924-1930) and, after his return from the African wars in Italy, became artistic director of Aureliano Toso (the famous Venetian glass works). He remained there for many years producing many outstanding works using traditional Venetian techniques, but producing some original effects, "daring" asymmetrical forms, the designs often characterized by their obvious difficulty of execution.

                    2 Murano Fan Vases Attributed to Fratelli Toso & Dino Martens

                    Est: $300 - $500

                    Artist/Designer; Manufacturer:  Dino Martens (Italian, 1894-1970), attributed; Aureliano Toso (Italy), attributed, Fratelli Toso (Italy), attributed Marking(s); notes: label (2) Materials: glass Dimensions (H, W, D): largest: 7.75"h, 7.25"w, 4.25"d Additional Information:  One vase technique is "Latticino" and the other is "Mezza Filigrana." Provenance: Collection of Leslie & Ramon Pina, Beachwood, Ohio.   Leslie Pina has authored over fifty books on 20th-century design, each focused on a specific area she and her husband Ramon personally collected and studied. Her obsession with color and design began early in life. She followed in her mother’s footsteps to attend the Cleveland Institute of Art on a scholarship, the start of an “endless academic career” and the ideal outlet for her drive to collect, study, and write.   While in graduate school Leslie went to Puerto Vallarta and met her future husband Ramon. They shared a passion for beauty in nature and in art. “We learned and wrote about many topics: Italian, Scandinavian, and American glass, Art Deco designs, Mexican silver, Herman Miller furniture, and so on. We traveled around the United States to photograph private and museum collections. That said, Murano glass was and still is our favorite.” The selection of Murano glass offered in this auction was amassed over 30-40 years, most collected prior to the mid-1990s, and reflects the contents of four of Leslie Pina’s books. Palm Beach Modern Auctions would like to thank Dr. Pina for sharing her personal stories about her time as an educator, writer, and collector, and her love of beautiful objects.
