The VENINI Balloton vase represents a masterpiece of Murano glassmaking, where technical mastery meets the poetry of color. Its characteristic quilted texture, achieved through the ancient Balloton technique, creates a fascinating optical illusion: the glass takes on an almost textile-like softness, inviting touch and playing with the sandblasted surface.
In this new interpretation, the vase is dressed in the extraordinary Lilac Mint nuance, a color that tells the story of the most intimate and secret Venice. Like the wisteria blooming in the lagoon's hidden gardens, the lilac gently merges with minty shades, creating a chromatic dialogue that evokes spring freshness and the sweetness of memories.
Each vase is a unique piece, blown and crafted entirely by hand by Murano master glassmakers. The Balloton surface is created through a complex process that requires precision and experience: the glass is blown into a mold that imprints the characteristic relief pattern of small diamonds, while a colored thread, applied hot, defines and embellishes the upper edge of the vase.
Perfect as a central decorative element in a contemporary setting or as a refined addition to a classic interior, the Balloton vase lends itself to multiple interpretations. Its versatility makes it ideal both as a precious container for floral arrangements, where the unique texture creates a fascinating interplay of light with the water, and as an autonomous sculpture capable of capturing and reflecting light in a unique way.
The Lilac Mint nuance, exclusive to VENINI, transforms this vase into a timeless object that encapsulates the essence of the Venetian spring: the delicacy of wisteria in bloom merges with the freshness of new green, creating a chromatic harmony that speaks of rebirth and that secret beauty that only Venice knows how to cherish.
