Contemporary Gradienti Vase Medium, Aurora Light-Aqua Blue by Laura Sattin
Located in 1204, CH
The collection called ‘Gradienti’ is inspired by the infinite colour nuances of the sky. The technique used to make these vases is called ‘sfumato’, where the goal is to achieve imperceptible transitions between hues of soft colours.
Because of the unpredictable behaviour of the colours during melting and during the hot working pro- cess, every vase is different: sometimes the transition from one colour to another is perfectly smooth, other times you can read a clear transition, a kind of horizon. This unpredictable component is what makes each vase unique.
To make a piece, two colours of molten glass are combined at the beginning of the glass-making process. They are then dipped in an extra thin layer of transparent glass and mouth-blown into a wooden mould. Finally, the opening of the vase is shaped freehand.
After cooling overnight in the kiln, the vases are sandblasted and waxed giving the pieces a satin, smooth and soft surface.
Gradient mouth-blown glass, fading from steel blue to warm grey, sandblasted and waxed.
This piece has been designed by Laura Sattin...
