Fazzoletto

The Venini Handkerchief Vases, designed by Fulvio Bianconi in collaboration with Paolo Venini in 1948, are known as “Venini Fazzoletto vases” in Italian. These vibrant Murano glass vases, reminiscent of folded handkerchiefs with their distinctive pinched rims and wide bases, are completely handcrafted and mouth-blown by skilled Italian artisans on the island of Murano in northern Italy. Enter a sensual, fascinating world with the intense, vibrant colors of the Fazzoletto collection, where elegant vases come to life through the art of hand-blown opal glass, utilizing a modern interpretation of the 15th-century Opalini technique. Each vase in this collection is unique, often featuring two-toned effects and inimitable shapes that evoke the motion of skirts swaying in the breeze.

Available in a stunning array of colors, such as red, white, sapphire, aquamarine, grape, mint, grey, orange, amber, horizon and apple green; these Murano vases are ideal for enhancing any room as decorative bowls, containers, or striking focal points. Celebrated worldwide for their timeless appeal, the Venini Handkerchief Vases symbolize playful elegance and refined design, embodying the artistic vision of VENINI. Their whimsical shapes and cheerful colors evoke a sense of joy and lightness, capturing the carefree spirit of the era. Recognized as masterpieces of glass art, these vases have earned a place in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York, solidifying their status as iconic works of design.
