Riccio Cielo Coste Medium
The glass is first hand-blown in the heat of the furnace and shaped into a round vase with a small opening. Once solid, it is cold-carved on the grinding wheel, a technique we call molatura. Coste is the name of this carving: deep, vertical cuts that run along the body of the vase like ribs, recalling the shell of a sea urchin, Riccio in Italian. The final polishing lets the light play on the Cielo shade and the carved surface. This vase is handcrafted and signed.
Slight variations may occur due to the artisanal process.
Dimensions: H14 cm x W18 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.
