Murano Inspired handblown vase, "Levitating Amber Fire"
An incredibly seductive vase, this design by the Seguso Family combines modern design with glass-blowing techniques brought to Brazil from Murano Island in Italy. Its contours are captivating, as the clarity of the outer surface reflects through the inner teardrop of red and amber.
The presence of air bubbles accentuates the nature of the traditional hand blown crafting process, making each piece unique.
Mario Seguso, the patriarch of the Seguso Family, was born in 1929 in Venice, Italy to one of the oldest and most famous blown glass artisan families on the island of Murano. His ancestors have crafted art glass since 1300. In 1956, Mario created his own workshop in Brazil. He has passed on his knowledge to his sons, grandsons and the artisans working with him. He is proud to have many assistants and to have trained eight glass masters in his workshop.
The Seguso Family provides work for a number of full-time blown glass artisans.
This artist is an elder master and continues to actively practice their craft.
This artist supports children under the age of 18.
"A Beautiful Eyecatching Piece"
The stunning vase has outstanding quality, is an exceptional piece of art glass, and far exceeded our expectations. We coupled it with the Amber Vortex centerpiece from another artist in Novica for a focal point display. They are a striking combination under lights. Highly recommend both pieces.
