Marius Ernest Sabino (1878–1961) was an Italian-born artist who became a key figure in French decorative arts, particularly in Paris during the early 20th century.

Sabino’s work is strongly associated with the Art Deco movement, characterized by:

Clean geometric lines
Stylized natural forms (flowers, animals, female figures)
A sense of modern elegance and symmetry
Signature Material: Opalescent Glass

Sabino is especially famous for:

Opalescent molded glass
Soft, glowing finishes that diffuse light beautifully

His vases often have:

Frosted or milky surfaces
Sculptural reliefs
A luminous, almost ethereal quality

His works were both artistic and accessible, bridging fine art and industrial production.

Active mainly in Paris in the 1920s–1930s, Sabino participated in major exhibitions, including the Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes, which defined Art Deco
