Single Hand Blown Faceted Smoke Citrine Murano Glass Vase, Signed, Italy, 2022

About the Item

Single hand blown faceted smoke citrine murano glass vase, handcrafted in Italy by the Murano glass master, Alberto Dona, and signed. This vase is heavy and substantial and hand blown in a thick and solid Murano glass. The faceted scales throughout the vase are obtained by grinding the glass after it is hand blown, point by point. These facets catch and reflect light and causes the vase to look jewel-like. Can be displayed alone as listed or with its complementary vase shown in some of the photos and listed separately. This listing is for one vase. This vase is on display at the Gallery at 200 Lex in the New York Design Center. Italian master glass-blower Alberto Donà was born in Venice in 1944 and began learning his Craft at the tender age of 13. Donà apprenticed under numerous masters in Italy and Venezuela, including the maestro ‘Nane’ Ferro, who was a giant in the Murano glass world in the 1960s. In the 1970s, Donà opened his own furnace and began working on his own creations, quickly gaining a reputation amongst the local artisans for the scale and dynamic colors of his work. Alberto Donà’s studio also collaborates with external designers and interior designers, as well as with brands such as Donghia, Fendi, Venini, and Cornelio Cappellini, amongst others. Alberto Donà was given a solo exhibition at the Vassel Art Gallery in London in 2001, and he was commissioned to design the lighting for the Hiroshima Memorial Museum in 2006.

    Handblown pair of clear and Amethyst or purple Murano glass vases in the iconic manner of the "Rostrato" glass of the 1940s.

This "Rostrato" method is done as the glass is cooling off. The result is a jewel like form that refracts light in every direction.
