When considering art glass as an attractive investment, the primary consideration – aside from personal aesthetics – should essentially be a work's prospective increase in monetary value – or APPRECIATION potential. Evaluating that potential will always rest with four primary quality points: RARITY (supply), trending DESIRABILITY to collectors (demand), and the quintessential element, physical CONDITION (Importantly, even a small chip can (and will) make a literal world of difference in current and future value)! The breakable nature of art glass is a big factor in rarity as more and more irreplaceable work is damaged or destroyed. So, please carefully inspect what you are buying and be sure to protect what you own! The fourth, and most important quality is AUTHENTICITY. Without that nothing else matters! Copyright © 2022 OnMyWatch About the Designer Ercole Barovier (1889–1974) The nearly fifty year tenure of Ercole Barovier as artistic director, designer and owner of Barovier & Toso is unprecedented in the history of Murano glass, and the firm’s success stands as a testament to his singular artistic talent and entrepreneurial genius. Born in 1889 to a Muranese family that could trace its origins back to the 13th century, Barovier did not train as a glassblower but had a great passion for glass and quickly distinguished himself as an innovative designer. He joined Artisti Barovier in 1919 at the age of thirty and found success designing vases in the mosaic technique. In 1930 he produced the critically acclaimed and award-winning Primavera series, the success of which encouraged him to continue his experiments. Throughout the 1930s and 1940s Barovier’s dedication to the technical mastery of experimental glass brought him international fame. His thick-walled vessels decorated with un-melted pigments, highly textured surfaces, raw metallic inclusions and expressive hot-work applications helped to create a new aesthetic vocabulary for Murano glass in the first half of the 20th century. During the post-war period, Barovier’s prescient experimentation continued. Exploring the vast potential of glass tesserae arranged in geometric patterns, he re-invented mosaic glass and used it to express the renewed artistic vigor of post-war Italy. By the time of his retirement in 1972 Ercole Barovier had designed thousands of models for his company. While many of these were never produced, the body of work that was created is staggering in its diversity, creative daring and technical complexity.
