Sabino Opalescent Crystal Snake and Frog Sculpture Very RARE Vintage Circa 1920-1930’s. Just breathtakingly beautiful vintage Sabino sculpture of a snake and frog. It has the signature inscription “Sabino France” on the bottom of the sculpture denoting that it is an early original piece that was made in France. This piece is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, and little to no visible wear marks. These were protected and very cherished pieces that were never handled. No box. From a smoke free, pet free home. I will be listing several other Sabino sculptures from a recently obtained private family collection, so please see my other listings. Bundle and save!
OPALESCENT ART DECO GLASS OF THE 1920S AND 1930S
The artist Marius-Ernest Sabino (1878-1961) was an Italian-born Parisian who attended L’Ecole National des Arts Decoratifs and the Beaux Arts de Paris. He won numerous prizes in Europe for his art and was awarded the Knight of the Legion d’Honneur for his contributions to French art and industry.
Sabino experimented with glass and by 1925 he had created his own chemical formula for opalescent glass. The result is that in low light the glass often appears white or bluish like ice in a glacier, but with brighter or more direct light, many of the pieces turn a subtle golden color. As if by magic.
