This superb vase designed in 1940 by Carlo Scarpa is part of a numbered edition. The mouth-blown glass is handmade incorporating different techniques to obtain a striking visual effect evoking the folds of pleated fabric. Two-tone brick red watermark stripes follow the sinuous profile of the vase with glass rods ("canne") encased in an opaque overlay using the "filigrana" method and finished in "battuto" to confer a textured surface.
