Sculpture in Murano glass, made using the Massello and Calcedonio techniques.
A tribute to mothers and their strength by maestro Tagliapietra.
This Murano glass sculpture tries to depict all the sweetnes and protection emanating from a mother embracing her child. A composition with a strong emotional significance.
Its peculiar colors are due to the calcedonio technique. The coloring effect is obtained by adding to the molten glass a mixture based on different metal oxides. The results are incredible.
