AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
"Milano inspires it, Murano shapes it. Sip the incomparable."
Against the backdrop of the Cathedral's spires, in the beating heart of the design capital, a secret collaboration is born that is destined to go down in history.
The famous and ultra-exclusive Milanese cocktail bar "Sora Musra" has commissioned the historic Vetreria Artistica Emmedue of Murano to create a liquid work of art. The brief?
Translate the vibrant energy, the sophisticated elegance, and the spirit of Milanese aperitivo into the millennial tradition of Venetian blown glass.
The result is a very limited edition of artistic goblets, used only for one summer night to serve the Signature Cocktails Murano/Milan Special Edition. Each piece is unique: the stem is a triumph of colors, murrine, and miniature sculptures that support a slender coupe designed to enhance the perlage of the finest sparkling wines and signature cocktails.
- The goblet on the right: "Ode to Picasso" (or "The Guardian")
The stem looks like a small living sculpture. The two blue circular elements are positioned exactly like two wide-open eyes watching the toast, while the central orange and yellow section recalls the elongated profile of a cubist nose.
- The goblet on the left: "The Calm Geometry" (or "The Eye of the Cyclops")
The central decoration of the stem forms a large triangular ring, bordered by small radiating reliefs (called walls or tips in the furnace). This structure recalls a large central and geometric eye, almost a tribal or futuristic mask.
Both belong to the splendid category of the "Venetian Little Figures" reinterpreted in a modern and surreal key, where the stem ceases to be only a support and becomes the real protagonist of the artwork.
Today, these masterpieces leave Milano’s private terrace to enter your collection. It’s not just a goblet; it’s the tale of an unforgettable night sealed in glass art.
Item: Pair of art goblets for aperitif / collection flutes.
Finish and Provenance: Original Murano glass, hand-blown by Vetreria Artistica Emmedue Murano.
Edition: Special collaboration Murano/Milan cocktail bar Sora Musra I.
Conditions: Excellent (like new, pieces on display from the event - SEE PHOTOS)
Colormixed stems with murrine details, geometric and figurative sculptures, base in deep cobalt blue glass.
Why Make an Offer?
Pieces not available through traditional sales channels. Perfect as a standout item for a design showcase or for a private aperitif that will leave your guests wide-eyed.
Seller's Story
Welcome to our Catawiki store. Our journey in online sales began back in 2004, driven by a clear vision: creating online auctions dedicated to high-value objects.
Today, more than twenty years later, we carry forward that exact same vision. We are proud to have remained a small, family-run business, yet operating with the solidity and scale of major industry professionals: each year, we welcome more than 100 new clients, purchase over 150 lots, and select between 3,000 and 5,000 unique items to offer you.
Our commitment is reflected in everything we do, from the initial find to the final delivery to your doorstep:
• A Purchase with Social Value: Buying from us means securing a great deal while actively supporting the future of young Italian students. We collaborate closely with 3 graphic design and advertising schools in Milan, Bergamo, and Lecco.
We invest our time and expertise to teach these students the secrets of online sales, professional photography, and marketing. By choosing us, you are tangibly contributing to their education and career paths.
• Field Research and Discovery: For years, we have been personally scouting the most remote locations across Lombardy to find unique pieces, rarities, oddities, and mid-century modern design.
• We Invest Our Own Capital: We do not sell on consignment. We invest our own capital upfront to purchase and restore every single item, taking on all the risks ourselves.
• Direct Dealings with No Intermediaries: We manage every single price personally.
This allows us to eliminate third-party costs and ensure you get the best possible profit margin as a buyer or collector.
• Meticulous Restoration and Quality Control: We get our hands dirty. Every item is carefully restored and verified with an obsessive eye for detail before going up for auction.
• Secure and Eco-Friendly Shipping: To prevent inflated shipping costs and ensure indestructible packaging, my wife and I head out almost every evening, often at unusual hours, to collect heavy-duty industrial cardboard from businesses in our neighborhood.
We hand-select only pre-evaluated, ultra-resistant materials to offer you maximum protection at the lowest possible cost.
Choosing our lots means relying on the historic expertise of a family that has lived this passion since 2004, while investing in the next generation. Our schools and students thank you deeply for your trust.
Happy bidding!
