Vase by Davide Salvadore, 2018

Summary

Davide Salvadore is one of the top Venetian glass artists working today. His unique combination of murrini, or canework, and cold-cutting techniques are what make his work so distinctive. This vessel, initially produced in our shop using Greenfield Village glass, was finished in Salvadore's studio to produce the vivid "Encalmo" cold work on the surface.
