Know before you buy
The Opalino technique involves adding specific minerals to the glass mixture to create a milky, semi-translucent effect. This process results in the soft, glowing appearance and vibrant, saturated colors characteristic of Venini glass.
Because each vase is meticulously handcrafted in Murano, Italy, there will be subtle variations in the glass. These slight differences are a hallmark of authentic mouth-blown glass and ensure that your piece is unique.
To preserve the finish, hand wash the vase gently with lukewarm water and a mild, non-abrasive soap. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges, and dry it with a soft, lint-free cloth to prevent water spots.
Measuring approximately 14 inches in height, this vase works best as a standalone statement piece on a console table, mantel, or dining sideboard. Its slender profile allows it to hold a few long-stemmed flowers without overpowering the space.
Authentic Venini pieces are typically signed by the brand and often include documentation or a hallmark indicating their origin in Murano. You can also verify the item number, 706.22-RGR, against the official Venini catalog.
