Bocia Cielo Diamante Small

We call this vase Bocia, a word from the Venetian dialect meaning "small". The vase is first hand-blown in Murano, giving it its round, harmonious shape. Once cooled, the glass is cold-carved on the grinding wheel, a technique we call molatura. Diamante is the name of this carving: the surface is covered with small, irregular facets, all cut by hand, recalling the facets of a diamond. No two are alike, and together they create a soft, pebbled texture that catches the light from every angle. The final polishing lets the light pass through the glass and bring out the depth of the Cielo shade. This vase is handcrafted and signed.

Slight variations may occur due to the artisanal process.

Dimensions: H8 cm x W11 cm

Care: clean with a damp cloth. If the water leaves a mark, a little vinegar on the cloth will remove it.

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.
