A striking contemporary Murano art glass vase by the renowned Venetian glassmakers Venini, dated 2015 and part of their Deco series. This impressive piece is crafted in “Vinaccia“ purple glass with a bold Modernist silhouette, inspired by the elegant form of a beehive. The Italian term "vinaccia" refers to a deep, rich wine-like colour, similar to the hue of red grape skins or pressed grape must after winemaking. It takes its name from the residue of grapes (skins, seeds, and stems) left after pressing for wine production (called vinaccia in Italian).

The body is composed of a rhythmic sequence of relief ring patterns that gradually expand towards a wide trumpet-shaped opening at the top, giving the vase a strong sculptural presence. The glass has been expertly hand-blown in the traditional Murano manner, combining heritage craftsmanship with a distinctly modern aesthetic.

Etched with the Venini signature and date to the underside, this vase is a refined and decorative work of art that would add a rich splash of colour and sophistication to any interior, whether displayed on its own or as part of a curated collection.
