Ghiaccio – the Italian word for ice – is the effect produced by ‘Granzioli’, small glass fragments that resemble crushed ice. To create this special texture, a bed of Granzioli are applied on the main piece while it is still incandescent. The result is a thick and uneven layer of glass granules that envelops the surface of the vase. To highlight the contrast, a portion of the vase is left uncovered and smooth.

Discovering the Artisan

Venini
Veneto, Italy | Glassmith
Iconic glassmaking company Cappellin Venini &C. was founded in 1921 by Paolo Venini and Giacomo Cappelin. Divided and renamed Vetri Soffiati Muranesi Venini in 1925, it soon became a well-recognized name in artistic glass production, reaching its golden age in the 1980s with important collaborations with distinguished artists, designers, and architects. Venini’s exquisite blown glass objects represent the perfect marriage between Murano’s tradition and original designs by artists like Alessandro Mendini, Gio Ponti, Ettore Sottsass, and Carlo Scarpa, just to name a few.
