Art Glass

An antique 'Vetro Soffiato' art glass vase, distributed by Pauli & Cia. C.V.M and manufactured by Pauli, Venini or Cappelin. Murano Venice, circa 1920s. Made of very thin, smoke-colored glass with a disc-shaped base and opening. Decorated with regular air bubbles. Possibly designed by Carlo Scarpa or Vittorio Zecchin. Signed with a paper label from Pauli & Cia on the foot. A magnificent example of Murano's outstanding art glass production.
Pauli & Cia. C.V.M. is founded by Dr. Salviati Antonio as 'The Venice and Murano Glass and Mosaic Company'. Salviati leaves the company in 1877 and the company is renamed 'Compagnia di Venezia e Murano' (C.V.M.). The company is mainly involved in the production and sale of Venetian glassware. However, imported glassware from Loets, Tiffany, Daum and Gallè is also sold. In 1910, the company ceases its own production. In 1920, it is sold together with Pauly & Cia. to a Milanese company and a year later to Gaetano Ceschina. The companies traded together under the name 'Compagnia di Venezia e Murano Pauli & Cia'. In addition to lighting fixtures, the company also produced high-quality glasses based on designs by Guido Balsamo Stella, Napoleone Martinuzzi, Umberto Belotto, Flavio Poli and Vittorio Zecchin. After the Second World War, the company's own production was discontinued and glasses from Alfredo Barbini, Livio Seguso and foreign glass manufacturers such as Moser and Libenski were distributed.
