The “Aurora di Murano” is a radiant handblown art glass vase that captures the essence of a sunrise over Venetian waters. Its tall trumpet form rises from a circular amber base and blooms into a softly flared rim, undulating like a flower opening to light.
The body of the vase is a canvas of molten color — deep cobalt blue swirling through fiery orange, red, and golden yellow, evoking the luminous transitions of dawn. Each layer of pigment is hand-applied and fused within the glass, creating a painterly depth that shifts with every angle of light.
Crafted in the macchia and sommerso traditions of Murano, this piece is both a vessel and a sculpture — a vibrant celebration of Italian glass artistry where technique and emotion meet in perfect harmony.
