Designed with elegant eloquence, this centerpiece is an original creation by the Molinari Family. They master traditional blown glass techniques to achieve the flowing lines and colorful artistry of this piece.
The presence of air bubbles accentuates the nature of the traditional hand blown crafting process, making each piece unique.
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 more than 100 artisans and more than 10 family members working with them.
This artist is an elder master and continues to actively practice their craft.
The glass bowl I ordered was exactly as portrayed and of the very highest quality. I was concerned about the shipping from Brazil but it was packed extremely well and arrived on time and in perfect condition. The artistry of this product is amazing

I just love this bowl! It is so exquisite! I bought it to use as a centerpiece on my glass dining room table and it looks absolutely beautiful. It really makes a statement. I was surprised to see how well made it is. It is just so gorgeous and "eloquence" is the perfect name for it. The quality is really amazing and I can't stop admiring it.

I bought this bowl because my friend bought one and I loved it. I realize not every bowl is the same. I was a tad disappointed in my bowl. It does not have as much gold and it is not as colorful as her bowl. My bowl is bright red with brown, black and white around the edges. I would love to trade her bowls but alas, she is not going for the trade. Keeping bowl but I will think twice before I order an other blown glass item.
