Specifications
The story of this model
The handkerchief model is considered a true work of art, symbolizing Italian glassmaking from the 1950s. Designed for the first time by painter Fulvio Bianconi, this vase is inspired by the shape of a handkerchief waved by a hand and blown by the wind, hence the name. Its unique curves and asymmetric tips are a masterpiece of craftsmanship, providing an incredible sense of movement and freedom, further emphasized by the colored glass murrine, reminiscent of the appearance of granite.
How is Granito made?
Granito is made using the "mano volante" technique, where master glassmakers work the precious Murano glass while it is hot. Decisive and well-calibrated movements, combined with the force of gravity, allow the tips of the handkerchief vase to take on ever-new shapes, where chance plays a role, contributing to the creation of an absolutely unique piece each time. This model features a finish with murrine, or fragments of colored glass, in light tones contrasted by bolder hints of red and yellow.
What is the ideal type of furniture for this Murano vase?
The handkerchief vase model represents one of the most iconic styles of Venetian glass production. Granito, with its light tones and vibrant yellow and red spots, adds energy and vitality to any environment. Whether placed in a modern living room, a bright dining room, or a creative studio, this vase brings a touch of color and originality, elevating the style and atmosphere of every space.
