Venini - handkerchief 700.04 Green apple
The handkerchiefs are icons of the world glass art. Designed by Fulvio Bianconi for Venini, they are made of blown glass and hand -worked in double opal color.
This handkerchief is 12 cm tall, it has a diameter of 12 cm, it is made of handcrafted Murano glass glass by the masters Venini, apple green glass.
Its shapes are sinuous and soft, thanks to the folds that recall those of the fabrics, the color of the vase comes to life between spaces of light and shadows. A very elegant object known all over the world as a masterpiece of Made in Italy excellence.
The wide chromatic range created by Venini has no equal throughout Murano and is today an invaluable heritage.
Each of the 125 colors starts from a specific recipe and translates into a variety of shades in constant evolution. The fantasy that guides the search for new shades is also reflected in the choice names: straw, grass green, horizon, aquare, grapes, Adriatic, tea, amber and night yellow are just some of the exclusive and evocative colors of Venini, inspired by Venice and from nature.
The glass is mainly composed of pure siliceous sand and metal oxides, of which the variable combination determines colors and intensity very different from each other.
During the evening this mixture is merged with very high temperatures in containers inside the ovens, technically called crucible. Here the minerals are transformed into hot magma with a precise color. The cooking of the glass lasts all night, with the oven that blends the raw materials at a temperature of about 1,400 degrees. At dawn, the melted material is ready for the modeling of the glass windows.
It is not only the furnace that determines the color of the glass, even the temperature and external humidity of the environment, in addition to the genre of cooking, can affect shades and shades.
The change enriches the single chromatic variant with further uniqueness, making each work even more exclusive.
