Cup with seahorse stem
Unknown Artist
Along with establishing a company that specialized in colorful glass mosaics for architecture, Salviati opened a workshop for blown glass that gained renown for the fanciful creatures incorporated into varied designs. Seahorses, stallions, dragons, and other exotic creatures formed the stems of cups, bows and candlesticks.
