Murano Glass Vase in the Style of Vittorio Zecchin for Venni Italy c.1930

Venni Vase.

A finely balanced hand-blown Murano glass vase, executed in the style of Vittorio Zecchin’s celebrated designs for Venini.

The form is classically restrained—a wide flared trumpet rising from a spherical knop and stepped circular foot—closely echoing the purity and proportion of early 20th-century Venetian modernist glass. The silhouette is both architectural and delicate, demonstrating the influence of Zecchin’s move toward simplified, sculptural forms during the interwar period.

The glass is a soft smoky pink tone with a gentle iridescent bloom, giving the surface a quiet luminosity that shifts subtly in changing light. This restrained finish enhances the overall elegance of the piece without relying on heavy decoration.

Well made and carefully finished, the vase retains a cleanly snapped pontil to the underside, consistent with hand-blown Murano production. The balance and clarity of the form suggest a confident and experienced maker.

A timeless decorative object, equally effective as a standalone sculptural piece or used for floral display, and well suited to both modern and period interiors.
