Unique Murano Glass Vase Stellato in the style Pollio Perelda for Fratelli Toso
Located in Tavarnelle val di Pesa, Florence
Splendid murano mosaic vase with a perfect color combination and complex mosaic technique.
The stellato finish is made by rolling canes of various color over a small blob of incandescent glass. The design is attained by using the glass scissors at the end and making flat discs with a star design. All these are then heated on a flat surface, in the old time was a stone so this technique still carries that name, lavorazione a piera.
It's heated so that it becomes an unique mosaic rectangular piece. It's then rolled with a glass disc that has the exact perimeter of the rectangular side. This makes the name that this technique is internationally known, Roll-up technique. The difficulty is to close into a cylinder the two other sides of the rectangle. After that the cylinder is closed on the opposite end, glowed to ge to the size, changing the working point with the punty technique (a puntello) and handopening to get the final shape.
An incredible sequence of glassmaking technique to get a special design.
The result is an intricate design of stars in an infinitive patchwork of color matching.
This is commonly known as Stellato vase, which was enhanced and studied by Pollio Perelda...

Explore the Collection of Authentic Murano Glass Vases on 1stDibs
Immerse yourself in the world of authentic vintage Murano glass vases, which elevate any dining setting with their dramatic colors. The collection of Murano glass decorative objects on 1stDibs includes bottles, bowls, sculptures and other vessels and furnishings.
Every vintage Murano glass vase is unique. These captivating objects are made of Murano glass, named for the Venetian island of Murano, where glassmaking has been practiced for centuries, using a variety of artisanal processes. The glass is identifiable by its richly layered colors and characteristic gold or silver flecks inside the glass.
Authentic Murano glass often has small imperfections and irregular shapes due to the freeform creation process. This glass introduces truly dazzling hues and provocative forms to your dining table, and mid-century Murano glass is particularly sought after by today’s collectors.
One of the earliest Venetian glass furnaces is believed to have been established as far back as the 8th century. While Murano glass is traditionally known for being blown glass, there are also Murano glass beads and mosaics, and the art of Venetian glassblowing has seen a range of different techniques evolve over the course of its long history. These techniques include calcedonio, millefiori and more, and enameling and gilding are also practiced at the furnaces. The celebrated filigrana technique is as old as Renaissance-era Italy, with origins in the 16th century.
This striking chandelier was created using the rigadin technique, which involves blowing the glass into a special bronze mold with grooves that leave an imprint on its molten surface, resulting in either decorative swirls or a ribbed effect.
There are many Murano glassmakers who have gained renown all over the world.
Ercole Barovier left an indelible mark on the world of Italian modernist glassmaking, for example — his vibrant use of color and exploration of innovative techniques yielded glass vases, chandeliers and other lighting and decorative objects that stand out in any interior many decades later. Barovier’s manufactory was eventually renamed Barovier & Toso, a name under which the company still operates today.
Archimede Seguso, whose company was later renamed Seguso Vetri D’Arte, redefined a 650-year family history of Murano glass-making with brilliance and novel techniques, elevating him to an exemplar for the maestros of his time as well as for future generations of glassmakers.
Founded in 1921 by Milanese lawyer Paolo Venini and antiques dealer Giacomo Cappellin, Venini & Co. played an important role in pairing forward-thinking modernist designers with skilled glassblowers. In Venini’s early years, the firm was led by visionary art directors Napoleone Martinuzzi and Vittorio Zecchin, and would eventually collaborate with Gio Ponti, Massimo Vignelli and Finnish designer Tapio Wirkkala. In 1925, Venini earned the Grand Prix at the International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts — the design fair that introduced the Art Deco style to the world.
The story of Salviati glass, which supported the revival of Venice’s flagging Murano glass industry in the 19th century, began with Vicenza-born lawyer and entrepreneur Antonio Salviati whose love of Murano glass art and mosaics inspired him to establish his own mosaic and glass manufacturing firm.
