Hand Blown Murano Bullicante Vase in Gold

Offered by: MOGUL

Description
This stunning Murano glass vase is a captivating example of the Bullicante technique, a masterful process developed by the renowned Archimede Seguso in the 1930s. The intricate technique involves placing molten glass into a metallic mold with spikes to create small holes on its surface. As the vase is submerged into molten glass multiple times, air bubbles are trapped between the layers, resulting in a mesmerizing effect of bubbles suspended within the glass. This specific piece, with its elegant form and rich golden hue, showcases the depth and unparalleled decorative allure that the Bullicante technique is renowned for.

The golden appearance of this vase is achieved through the skillful manipulation of air bubbles and the thick consistency of the glass itself. The result is a visually stunning effect reminiscent of boiling water, which is aptly reflected in the name "Bullicante," meaning "boiling" in Italian. This technique exemplifies the glass master's exceptional control over the medium, as well as the innovation and artistic heritage of Murano glassmaking. Each piece produced with this method is unique, reflecting the timeless elegance and creative spirit of Venetian artisans, making it a treasured addition to any high-end interior setting.
