The Venini Fazzoletto Vase Medium Taupe is an icon of Venini. For over 50 years it has been featured in museums and art exhibitions. Fazzoletto, handmade and blown, each one is unique. Using a highly suggestive technique, the master glass blower gives the still soft glass the form of an upturned handkerchief. The technical part of Opalino from the manufacture of milk glass, an opaque white glass, invented in Murano in the mid-fifteenth century to imitate the first porcelain all the rage in Europe. It is obtained by superimposing “encasing” the milk glass with a glass or more thin transparent and glass, getting beautiful objects with intense colors and bright.
