About the Item

Splendid murano mosaic vase with a perfect color combination and complex mosaic technique. The stellato finish is made by rolling canes of various color over a small blob of incandescent glass. The design is attained by using the glass scissors at the end and making flat discs with a star design. All these are then heated on a flat surface, in the old time was a stone so this technique still carries that name, lavorazione a piera. It's heated so that it becomes an unique mosaic rectangular piece. It's then rolled with a glass disc that has the exact perimeter of the rectangular side. This makes the name that this technique is internationally known, Roll-up technique. The difficulty is to close into a cylinder the two other sides of the rectangle. After that the cylinder is closed on the opposite end, glowed to ge to the size, changing the working point with the punty technique (a puntello) and handopening to get the final shape. An incredible sequence of glassmaking technique to get a special design. The result is an intricate design of stars in an infinitive patchwork of color matching. This is commonly known as Stellato vase, which was enhanced and studied by Pollio Perelda at Fratelli Toso. Many other have worked on this technique, Archimede Seguso at the time, Lino Tagliapietra later. This vase does not carry signatures or labels so it's most likely not an piece from them, still retains the beauty and the incredible technique. The vase is slightly leaning (not perfectly straight).
