Balloton Fiori Vase

The Balloton Fiori Vase from Venini defies conventional glasswork with its matelassé effect—a technical achievement that mimics the appearance of quilted fabric. This 2024 design, handcrafted in Italy, pushes the boundaries of what's possible with Murano glass, incorporating blown glass ampules that rise like delicate blooms. Italian artisans craft each piece through precise manipulation, allowing the glass to take shape naturally. The result is a functional vessel that doubles as a celebration of time-honored Murano glassmaking techniques.
