He was born in 1949 in Sant'Erasmo, a small island in the Venetian lagoon, three minutes from Murano.
During the 1950’s and 60’s he worked alongside masters such as Alfredo Barbini , Angelo Seguso , Ermanno Nason , Pino Signoretto and many others.
Angelo Seguso decided to take him on as an assistant.
When Pino Signoretto opened his own glassworks' studio in 1978 Arnaldo joined his friend in his new venture. In 1985 he and some friends opened a glassworks-studio called Andromeda.
Since 1991 he has been working for a friend, Oscar Zanetti , and the Zanetti Arte Vetro Corporation .

I have a signed A. Zanella crystal artwork depicting a golden wave. It is a base that had an addition on top. I am seeking the missing top part. Three images linked:

More details if needed. I live in North/Central Florida, USA. Any suggestions about what belongs on top of the wave would be warmly welcomed. Thank you in advance, Liz Bryman

I purchased an original piece from the island of Murano while vacationing in 1999. It is signed D. Zauella, but I cannot find anything about the artist. Am I misreading the etched name? Thank you for your time and reply.
