The Fazzoletto vase by VENINI, an icon of Italian design that has captivated with its sculptural and dynamic form since 1948, is now dressed in the new and exclusive Lilac Mint shade. This creation, which has entered the permanent collection of the MoMA in New York, stems from a unique artistic gesture: the master glassmaker, with a circular movement as precise as it is poetic, shapes the incandescent glass, giving it that characteristic wavy form that seems to dance with the light.
The new Lilac Mint coloring tells of a secret Venice, where wisteria in bloom intertwines with the first spring green of hidden gardens. This chromatic fusion transforms every vase into a living work of art, where the delicacy of lilac blends harmoniously with the freshness of mint green, creating a play of reflections and transparencies that changes as the light varies.
Originally designed by Fulvio Bianconi, the Fazzoletto represents a perfect example of how the Murano glassmaking tradition can continuously reinvent itself. Its shape, which recalls a handkerchief moved by the wind, is the result of a complex process that requires absolute mastery and precision. Each piece is entirely handmade, making every vase a unique and unrepeatable specimen.
Versatile and dramatic, the Fazzoletto vase lends itself to multiple interpretations: it can be the star of a refined centerpiece, a decorative element on an antique console, or an artistic presence on a contemporary coffee table. Its organic shape and the new Lilac Mint shade make it perfect for both classic and modern environments, where it can be appreciated as a sculpture in its own right or as a refined vessel for floral arrangements.
Each Fazzoletto vase is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity attesting to its provenance and craftsmanship, carried out exclusively in the VENINI furnaces of Murano, where the art of blown glass has been passed down for nearly a century. This new chromatic interpretation confirms VENINI's ability to renew itself while keeping intact its creative DNA and the artisanal excellence that distinguishes it in the world.
