The Opalino XL vase combines clean lines with handcrafted blown glass construction, originally designed by Paolo Venini in 1932. Each piece is individually handmade using a 15th-century opaline technique, resulting in subtle variation between vessels. Its amber exterior gives way to a white lattimo finish on the interior, a characteristic effect of the opaline glassmaking process. The smooth, unadorned silhouette reflects the integrity of the original design, produced continuously by Italian glassmakers Venini.
Designed in 1932 by Paolo Venini (1895-1959), the 'Opalino' vase is an elegant vessel based on purity and perfect lines. Truly unique, owing to the fact that each piece is fully handmade from blown glass, 'Opalino' charms with zero frills, illusions or special effects — just simple, time honoured elegance. Presented here in a shade of amber, the vase continues to be produced by Italian glassmakers Venini using the same 15th-century opaline technique that sees the interior of the vase revealing a white lattimo finish.
