Description from the seller

Pharmacy/apothecary vase "Scavo" in artistic Murano glass – 1970s

Important apothecary vase crafted entirely by hand in Murano in the seventies, characterized by the evocative scavo effect technique, a method that lends the glass the discreet and refined charm of ancient artifacts preserved through time.

The intense cobalt blue color, enriched by delicate violet shades on the lid, creates an elegant contrast with the precious hand-decorated gold decorations that embellish the surface with ornamental motifs inspired by classical tradition. The lemon-shaped knob, artisanally molded, adds another detail of value and originality.

Each vase stems from the skill and imagination of Murano’s master glassmakers: slight variations in the glass tones, in the distribution of decorations, or in the surface finishes should be regarded as a natural consequence of manual workmanship and attest to its authenticity.

Thanks to its strong visual presence and the richness of decorative details, this vase represents a refined collectible object and a prestigious furnishing accessory, capable of enhancing both classical and contemporary interiors.

Dimensions: approximately 40 × 14 cm
Era: 1970s
Material: artistic Murano glass
Finish: scavo effect with hand-applied gold decorations
Craftsmanship: entirely handmade by Murano master glassmakers
Use: decorative and highly valuable collectible item.

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.
