Decanter (stile Luigi XVI) - Rossetto Estevan - Bottle vase - Murano glass - Rare bottle of liqueur

Estevan Rossetto Glassworks is a historic furnace located in Murano (Fondamenta Andrea Navagero), renowned for keeping alive the art of Venetian art glass by combining traditional hot-working techniques (sculptures, submerged vases, and chandeliers) with refined cold working, including engraving and wheel grinding carried out by master engravers on commission or for exclusive lines. Specifically, the engraving style of this bottle echoes the decorative splendor of 18th-century Venetian design (Louis XVI style), characterized by geometric lattice patterns and symmetric floral motifs dominated by two peacocks facing each other.

Item Description
For sale a highly refined masterpiece of Venetian glass art: a splendid decanter bottle for liquor or perfume in pure Murano art glass, entirely handmade and adorned with a masterful cold-engraving. The piece bears the important attribution to the famous Estevan Rossetto furnace (Murano), an international excellence known for the superb quality of its works and for preserving the most complex traditional techniques.

Details of Craftsmanship and Artistic Quality
The bottle stands out for a majestic wheel-engraved pattern and deep-cut intaglio grinding, a technique requiring millimetric precision and years of experience by the master engraver.
• Central Decoration: The decorative composition recalls the neoclassical canons of 18th-century Venetian design. At the center sits a refined pair of facing peacocks, finely detailed in their plumage, perched on a central reserve with a dense geometric lattice motif (diamond grid).
• Surrounding Motifs: The entire glass surface is surrounded by rich symmetrical vines, acanthus leaves, buds, and floral garlands that frame the bulbous, sculpted body of the decanter.
• The Material: The glass is exceptionally clear, transparent, and heavy, specially crafted to reflect and refract light through the facets of the grinding, enhancing the reflections of the liquid it contains. The bottle is completed by its original coordinated stopper, topped with a solid glass medallion also ground with a rose floral motif.

The Set and Elegant Packaging: The decanter is presented in its original vintage protective case, an absolutely valuable element attesting its provenance and luxury positioning. The case is internally lined with fine silk (or satin) shaped to receive, protect, and impeccably cradle both the bottle body and its stopper, shielding them from shocks and dust. The production trademark is clearly impressed on the case, a seal of absolute authenticity that distinguishes authentic Murano artistic productions from imitations.
