An Icon of Italian Design: Large Venini "Fazzoletto" Vase in Pristine Condition
Elevate your interior with an absolute masterpiece of Italian art glass. We are thrilled to offer this stunning, authentic Venini "Fazzoletto" (Handkerchief) vase in its highly sought-after Large size (Model 700.00, standing at an impressive height of approx. 31 cm).
Designed originally in 1948 by the legendary duo Fulvio Bianconi and Paolo Venini, the Fazzoletto is one of the most famous and celebrated expressions of Murano glass art, proudly exhibited in major museums worldwide, including the MoMA in New York.
Unique Craftsmanship: Due to the organic, free-hand blowing technique, every single Fazzoletto is a unique, unrepeatable piece of art. Its fluid folds perfectly mimic the drape of a handkerchief frozen in time.
The Perfect Palette: This piece features the timeless and vibrant "Rosso Lattimo" colorway—a striking, fiery red exterior beautifully contrasted by a pure milk-white (lattimo) interior. This dual-layer technique creates a breathtaking depth when caught by natural light.
Authenticity: Fully authenticated and signed. It features the official diamond-point engraved signature on the base: "venini 2003", confirming its production year.
Condition: Mint / Pristine condition. No chips, cracks, flea bites, or deep scratches. It has been meticulously preserved and looks brand new.
Dimensions:
Height: Approx. 31 cm (12.2 inches)
Width/Diameter: Variable due to the folds (approx. 28-30 cm)
