Amestista
Designer Rosanna Toso
1975
H 20 cm x W 12 cm
This design showcases all the creative flair of Rosanna Toso, the last artistic director of Fratelli Toso in the 1970s and 1980s. Once again Rosanna chooses murrina for her designs; an elegant murrina, with a perfect balance of colors and contrast between opacity and transparency; blue and white exterior, solid frame, with the warm elegance of the central amethyst. The piece is meticulously crafted, making it a collectible vintage Murano glass treasure.
Murrina is derived from one of the oldest and most traditional glassmaking techniques; it involves creating patterns or images in a glass rod, which are revealed when the rod is cut into thin cross sections. The slices obtained from the original rod are juxtaposed on a plane and then heat-worked to shape the final object. The process of making murrine is complex and requires a high level of skill to be executed.
Delicately handcrafted, this vase speaks of the fascinating artistic imagination of Rosanna, who, while always remaining close to the family tradition, managed to distinguish herself through the elegance of her glass designs.
