Corbula mosaic plate

The artefact

The irregular shape and the careful and imaginative mosaic decoration of this artistic centerpiece are the result of a process of abstraction of the corbula, a traditional basket created and characterized by the inclusion of a circular fabric gusset at the bottom. Handcrafted with the glass fusing technique, it comes as a unique piece with always different compositional details and measures, reinterpreted in other furnishings such as wall lamps and chandeliers.
