Venini - Monofiore Balloton h24 APPLE-GREEN/RED thread vase
The iconic “Monofiore Balloton” is an object that seduces by appearing as soft as a quilted fabric, only to reveal itself as glass. The optical illusion is couched in its name: Balloton, the traditional glassblowing technique that recreates the matelassé look on the surface. A fine lip in a contrasting colour hot-worked around the mouth of the vase shows the glassworks’ signature style.
