The Venini Opalino Vase Small Rio Green is a stunning piece of Murano glass craftsmanship, known for its striking, vivid colors and pure, essential lines. Handmade and blown by expert artisans, this vase features an exquisite elegance and sophistication. The design, originally created by Venini in 1932, is part of the iconic Opalino collection, which showcases the timeless beauty of opaline glass. Opaline glass, also known as lattimo, was first developed in Murano around the mid-15th century in an attempt to imitate porcelain. By the 1930s, this unique opaque glass was elevated to an art form, and the Opalino collection reflects its golden age. The Opalino technique involves encasing lattimo glass in thin layers of transparent or colored glass, resulting in a luminous, colorful effect that is both captivating and elegant.
