Brazilian Hand Blown Atlantic Blue Art Glass Vase 4 In Tall, "Ruffled Blue Basket"
Molinari Family artisans find inspiration in a cachepó, or "basket" for this delightful art glass vase. Gentle monochrome droplets pose on graceful waves of handblown glass. With elegant contours and glossy allure, the serene pale blue vase is a superb example of the glass blower's art. The sculptural piece is representative of glass techniques brought to Brazil from Murano Island in Italy.
Because each piece is handmade, shape and size can vary slightly and tiny bubbles may appear within the glass. This exemplifies the hand-blown technique, making every piece a unique example of blown glass craftsmanship.

"Beautiful!"
This is a work of art - it is heavier than I thought it would be; placed in a window with sunlight coming through the two-toned colors creates a perpetual inspiration.

"Extremely beautiful."
I received this beautiful art piece for Christmas. Looking into the bowl I wonder what the artist was thinking as he made it. not only is the inside beautiful but the profile actually makes me think of rolling sea waves. From sand to crystal , magical. This beauty will now grace my home thanks to the hard work and imagination of a very gifted artist.

Preserving Traditions
Antonio Carlos and his brother, Paulo Molinari, learned the ancient hand-blown glass technique as apprentices of the Italian master, Aldo Bonora, who came to Brazil from Murano Island. After eight years, they opened their own workshop in 1962. Considered among the most brilliant and talented hand-blown glass makers in the country, they have trained a number of glass artisans and have formed masters that have worked with them for more than 30 years.
