AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Calice - Tipetto veneziano
an elegant example of Murano blown glass art, characterized by a stem worked with flower decorations and gilded details.
The Tipetto is the traditional, highly prized goblet of Murano's artistic glassmaking. Historically, it was used as a true status symbol during the banquets of European aristocracy.
Elaborate stem, the stem richly decorated with heat-applied elements portraying a central rose, green leaves and knots embellished with gold leaf inclusions.
Three distinct parts: it is made by hot-wond welding three separately blown components (the funnel-shaped drinking bowl, the decorative stem, and the circular supporting base).
Extremely lightweight: Despite the visual complexity, the mouth-blown artisanal glass feels incredibly light to the touch.
Fine workmanship, excellent condition - from my own collection built up over the last thirty years of works from the best Murano glassmakers such as Venini, Barovier & Toso, Salviati, Archimede Seguso, Carlo Moretti, Seguso V.A., V. Nason & C., etc.
We guarantee packaging appropriate to the object's artistic and economic value, prepared within the day following payment.
