| Just Friends Description: | In a truly beneficial friendship, it is necessary for there to be a strong foundation of commonalities as well as an unbreakable bond of love. However, those involved in the friendship should also maintain their separate identities while respecting the identity of their companion. Dino Rosin’s “Just Friends” perfectly exhibits this delicate balance. Always two distinct people, friends are sometimes as inexplicably linked as lovers. As always, the colors of the Calcedonia glass enhance the forms, permeating the piece with the warmth of the bottomless compassion inherent in friendship. As with all of Dino Rosin’s Calcedonia glass works, no two sculptures will ever contain the same colors. The distinguishing colors of Calcedonia, comparable to the stripes in a zoned agate, are created through the introduction of silver nitrate to crystal clear glass. Patterns found in each Dino Rosin sculpture cannot be controlled since the colors depend solely upon the chemical reaction of each batch. As a result, every sculpture - including "Just Friends" - has the added element of chance upon that of unparalleled mastery
Dino Rosin is a true "Maestro" from the celebrated glass art island of Murano, Italy. Rosin continues his family's tradition of glass blowing that dates back generations. "Just Friends" is a stunning example of this world famous artist's skill and lineage, with a combination of clear and "Calcedonia" glass, a lost art rediscovered by Loredano Rosin, Dino's predecessor and older brother. Rosin's studio produces the clearest and most colorful Calcedonia glass in the world. Impossible to duplicate, each piece is completely unique in its color. |
