Description from the seller

Large Murano blue art glass vase with Balloton processing – H 41 cm – New

Elegant vase in authentic Murano art glass, handmade entirely according to the Venetian glassmaking tradition.

This refined vase stands out for its deep shaded blue tone and for the distinctive Balloton decorative motif, featuring a geometric diamond texture that gradually evolves along the body of the vase: from the bottom with small tight diamonds to a progressively larger and more delicate pattern toward the top.

The effect creates a sophisticated play of depth, reflections and movement, highlighting the transparency of the glass and giving the piece a strong dramatic presence.

There is a small bubble/air inclusion in the glass, visible in the photo. This detail, along with any minor variations or slight imperfections, is a typical feature of the handcrafted Murano glassblowing process and represents a distinctive element of authenticity and the uniqueness of a piece made entirely by hand.

Complete with a certificate of originality.

• Origin: Murano – Venice, Italy
• Material: hand-blown art glass
• Color: Gradient blue
• Technique: Balloton motif with progressive diamonds
• Height: 41 cm
• Maximum diameter: 25 cm

Seller's Story

I was born and raised on the island of Murano, where glass is not simply a material, but a tradition that is lived every day. Since childhood I breathed in the warmth of the furnaces and watched the master glassmakers transform incandescent matter into shapes, colors and light. C growing up in Murano means learning early to recognize the value of true artistic glass: weight, transparency, murrine, the small imperfections that make each piece unique. This knowledge, developed in a family and artisanal setting, today allows me to select only authentic works, handmade on the island according to traditional techniques. Each creation I present – vases, sculptures, decorative objects and lamps – is born from entirely manual work, without industrial molds. Color, shape and texture variations are not defects, but the signature of the artisan who made each single piece. All works come with a certificate of authenticity, guaranteeing their origin and quality. My objective is to offer not mere objects, but authentic fragments of Murano’s history, destined to endure over time and to bring into my clients’ homes the beauty and value of Venetian craftsmanship.
