An expression of Italian style and Venetian artistic tradition, this vase is a fine designer accent for your home and an amazing Venice-inspired gift for special occasions such as birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, or career milestones.

- The vase is very well packaged to avoid damage in transit.
- It features the artist's signature on the bottom, the original sticker, and comes with the certificate of authenticity.
- As each Murano Glass Wavy Vase is unique work of art made entirely by hand, some variations of colors, patterns, and shapes, as well as uneven distribution of gold leaf inside the glass, are possible and do not constitute a defect.

Workmanship
Gold Foil or Gold Leaf is used in Murano Glass to create designs that seem to shimmer and glow, which is achieved by infusing very thin pieces of real 24 karat gold foil into the liquid glass. This technique is used in crafting Murano glassware ranging from small beads to large sculptures and vases. In larger pieces, the Venetian glass artisan gathers a big blob of glass at the end of a metal stick, then wraps gold foil around the blob, creating a thin outer layer of pure gold, and then puts the blob into the furnace to ensure that the gold permanently fuses with the glass. In this way masters in Murano Glass factories can create gold Millefiori or Sommerso glassware, adding a touch of pure sunshine to art glass.
