Colorful crescent-shaped centerpiece or decorative glass, made in Murano glass using the millefiori technique, from Italy in the 1990s.
The piece exhibits a curious distorted crescent shape, with a deep belly and the tips of irregular heights, one being taller and curved than the other. Each side of the figure is different, on one side presenting yellow, green, brown and black tones, while on the other side orange, pink and blue tones abound. This reinforces the image of this centerpiece as a multipurpose piece, capable of adapting to different rooms and decorative styles.
About the millefiori technique
Strictly speaking, millefiori is a glassmaking technique that produces distinctive decorative patterns in glassware. The term is a combination of the Italian words "mille" (thousand) and "fiori" (flowers). It is traditionally associated with Venetian, Murano glassware. The technique involves the production of glass rods (murrine) with multicolored patterns that can be seen from the ends, where the flowers are located. These rods are heated in the kiln and thinned, to finally be cut into thin discs or beads, which are inserted into the objects to be decorated. Over time, it has come to be recognized as a style in its own right, as objects of this type can be traced back to Roman times.
