Riccardo Licata, Double Incalmo with Central Murrine Band, Venini Murano, Italia
By Venini, Riccardo Licata
Located in Brussels, BE
Rare double incalmo vase with a central murine.
Body of the vase is made of Murano blown mole grey glass.
A central white and yellow murine is fixed between the two glass bands. The murine has a “comb” motif. A design imagined by Licata himself.
The vases of this type are quite rare, the production was complicated because the central band in murrine reacted differently to heating and elements from the two other parts which constitute the vase. The base and the top.
The blowers who produced these parts had to have significant skills.
The vase is in very good to excellent condition and signed with the 3 lines acid stamp “Venini Murano Italia...

Venini Murano Fulvio Bianconi Tiepolo Head Figurine
By Fulvio Bianconi
Located in Brussels, BE
The Commedia dell’arte figurines are one of Fulvio Bianconi's most characteristic productions for Venini.
Their creation can be dated around 1947-1948. The series, which originally consisted of twelve models, was exhibited at the 24th Venice Biennale in 1948.
It is important to see this series of figurines as a cartoonish reinterpretation of the figurines that were very popular on the island of Murano in the 1930s.
We recognize here the ironic touch of the work of Fulvio Bianconi who an illustrator was.
Fulvio Bianconi uses here for each figurine a different costume and mask, the base is always made of lattimo glass decorated for polychrome glass costumes.
Attitudes are also different for each character.
We rarely find the heads of these figurines which were rare productions and out of catalog.
Charming objects blown by masters outside the “regular” production.
We present here the head of Giangurgolo, a figurine which bore the reference 2900 in the Venini catalog.
The basic material of the lattimo glass head, the pink eyes...
