Large Italian Scavo Corroso Aquamarine Glass Urn Vase

About the Item

Large Italian Scavo Corroso glass urn vase with 2 handles and gorgeous raised wave design surrounding the middle. Mesmerising to look at! This piece evokes the beautiful aquamarine sea, and is an Avalon favourite. Nice heavy weight to the piece. Scavo means 'dug up' and imitates ancient objects in the form and texture to those found in archaeological excavations. During manufacturing, a mixture of several powders (carbonates nitrates, talc, silica, etc.) is dispersed on the glass surface. Then the object is heated up to 800-Celsius degrees. This creates an effect of transparency and colour. A second heating creates a unique surface texture.
