Battuto Bicolore glass vase

Battuto Bicolore glass vase by Venini

Bicoloured blown vase handworked with the "incalmo" technique then beaten and grounded.
The liveliness of sea bubbles meets the murmur of bright red sand waves on the surface of this work. The raw power of the elements enclosed in an archaic shape recalling a small talisman.
Tiny little light blue bubbles chatting away. Their voices reach out to the world, then meet the reddest of waves, coming together as one. A dialogue between natural elements that turns into a precious creation in the hands of Carlo Scarpa.

SOFFIATO (BLOWN) - This technique takes its name from the action performed by the craftsmen when they blow air into a long metal cane attached to a piece of glass in order to expand and shape it into various shapes. This glassmaking tradition has remained unchanged for more than a thousand years. Thanks to this ancient technique and to the experience and manual skill of the master glassmakers, a simple piece of glass is transformed into artistic masterpieces that are truly one of a kind.

BATTUTO (BEATEN) - This is the cold-crafting technique that most challenges the skill and delicacy of the master glassmaker. The distinctive characteristic of Beaten glass is that its surface is “sculpted” by hand with a grinding wheel. This creates countless small and apparently irregular marks on the glass surface.
