Default Art Collection For Sale

I have decided that it is time to start selling a large portion of the Frantz Art Glass collection.

One of the first glass artists I began collecting was Vittorio Costantini. Starting in the early 1990's, each time I was in Murano/Venice, I would stop at the shop of Costantini and purchase a few pieces.

Buying directly from the artist insured that I would always handpick the nicest pieces (though all of his work is nice).

At this time we have around 60 of Vittorio's pieces listed on our website, with another 30 to photograph. We have some murrini from Mario DeRossi and Antonio DeRossi on the website, with more murrini to be added soon.

If you would like to check it out, just go to our website and when you click "shop" almost at the bottom is the Art Glass, check it out!

Mike

Thank you for sharing your finds with the world, Mike, but I'm curious; why are you selling?

That Christopher Columbus piece by Moretti is astonishing. A piece of history!

Default More art for sale

In just a week I have sold 3 pieces of art from Vittorio Costatini. Today we photographed 21 more pieces from Costantini including, fish, birds, bugs, insects.

Soon I will be adding more art including pieces from some great Italian glass artists.

In all there should be close to 90 pieces of art by Vittorio Costantini.

I will be adding more murrini, some old and some new.

It's just time to share (in exchange for cash) for those who want to collect these pieces before they are all gone.

If you wonder if my prices are good, what I have done is look at galleries that sell his art and reduce the price by at least 25-45%.

What makes my pieces so much better is that I handpicked each piece while in Italy.

Shipping is additional, but nominal.

You should just take a look, his work is great!

I have only a few more of Vittorio's pieces left to photograph, but they are my most favorite pieces.

I promise to have them available to see sometime in December.
