Description from the seller
Balloton vase in Murano glass – Master Valter Rossi
Refined artistic vase in authentic Murano glass, handcrafted entirely on the island of Murano by Master glassmaker Valter Rossi.
The vase features an intense ruby red color, enriched by an elegant contrasting upper rim.
The surface is adorned with the traditional Balloton technique, typical of Murano glass art, which creates a refined geometric pattern on the glass surface and enhances depth, transparency, and reflections.
The harmonious, elongated form makes this piece particularly decorative, ideal for both contemporary interiors and collections dedicated to Venetian artistic glass.

Color: ruby red with contrasting edge
Crafted by hand in Murano – Venice, Italy
The work is accompanied by an authenticity certificate, guaranteeing provenance and Murano craftsmanship.

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.
