The Molinari Family of Brazil trained with artisans from the island of Murano, Italy, to develop and hone their glass-blowing skills. Murano, near Venice, is the epicenter of the glassblowing arts, and the family's amazing skill is showcased in this stunning hand-blown vase. Swirls of coffee brown artfully accent the cream-colored glass.

"Superb Craftmanship"
I was looking for something ornamental to put in the lighted niche just inside the entryway to my home. I knew that I wanted something glass that was handblown, and I wanted it to match the color of the d?cor inside my dining room and living room (earth-tone beige, cherry finish, brown marble.) After looking for a few weeks I came across Novicas website and found the Smoky Amber vase made by the Molinari family. The size and color of the vase were perfect for what I wanted to put in the recess. When I received it, I was astounded at the heft of the piece and how perfect the curves and smoky amber colors were. Well worth the money and wait for international shipping. Novicas customer service reps were knowledgeable and helpful when ordering, and I even received a 10% discount since it was my first purchase with them. I really want to decorate more of my home with pieces from the Molinari family due to their superb craftmanship!

"Gorgeous work of art."
I bought this as a gift for my sister. It was not a special occasion. I gave it to her out of love and appreciation,and it was a lovely surprise which she loved. The vase sits on a table in her home filled with pretty dried flowers. She has it displayed from a safe area in which the large piece will not get knocked over . I enjoy it when I visit her. I wanted to get one for myself, (the same one) but it has undergone quite a price hike since my purchase.

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.
More than fifty years ago, Antonio Carlos and Paulo Molinari set up their workshop with a small group of artisans. Today they have trained many more artisans and family members, who all work with them.
This artist is an elder master and continues to actively practice their craft.
