Art Glass

A 'Vetro Incamiciato' art glass bowl made of opaque white and yellow glass with an overlay of clear glass and applied aventurine glass rings on the base and rim. The base consists of six applied incamiciato glass threads. Most probably designed by Napoleone Martinuzzi and manufactured by Venini, Murano in the 1930s. In incamiciato glass, lattimo (milky) glass is overlaid with layers of colored and transparent glass. This technique was mainly used in the 1920s and 1930s by Venini, Fratelli Toso and Barovier.

Napoleone Martinuzzi (1892 -1977) was an Italian sculptor and designer who left his mark on Italian glass art in particular. As graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice, he worked with Ca' Pesaro artists and exhibited at Ca' Pesaro in 1908. In the 1920s he was appointed as Director of the Murano glass Museum. In 1925 he founded Venini & Co. with Paolo Venini and others, of which he took over the artistic direction. For Venini he created stunning creations in soffiato, opaque and pulegoso glass that received international recognition with many awards. His creations of animals, fruits and succulent plants gained international success too. The Cenedese Glassworks , Seguso Vetro d'Arte and Pauly & Co were his last creative stations.
