Bocia Acciaio Bamboo

We call this small vase Bocia, a Venetian dialect word meaning “small.” Mouth-blown in molten glass, it takes on its compact, rounded form. Once cooled, the piece is refined through carving and polishing techniques, revealing subtle tones of colour and unexpected reflections of light. Bocia is handcrafted and signed. Slight variations are to be expected as part of the artisanal process.

ABOUT THE TECHNIQUE

Cold Carving

The cold carving technique, Molatura, takes its name from the grinding wheel used to carve the cold glass, which in Italian is called "Mola".

Usually cold carving is process used to get rid of the cutting edges of the glass during the finishing phase, but can also be used as decorative tool. The different carvings make the tactile experience one of a kind, also allowing the light to play with the glass surfaces, reflecting colours in a unique way.
