Lafiore turquoise blue sand 'Scavo' Patina/Frosted textured glass jug/pitcher or vase, roman/ancient glass style sand crystal glass
La-Fiore was hand made in S’esgleieta in Mallorca.
These decretive glass items are made to resemble ancient/roman glass in the 1970s/1980's. The Italian glass artist Seguso Vetri d'Arte made some famous 'Scavo' Murano Glass pieces with the effect also.
Scavo glass technique - (Italian, “excavation”) A technique involving the application, to the surface of an object, of substances that, when heated to about 1470°F (800°C), fuse and create an effect similar to weathering, thereby imitating glass from an archaeological excavation
The glass is quite rough to the touch on the outside and smooth on the inside.
Hand made and so no two pieces are alike No chips, cracks or repairs.
31cm high and 11.5 at the widest point.
*Please note these are approximate sizes.
*Please check the images closely before your purchase, these will show the true beauty as well as any flaws, after all these are vintage items which have been previously loved.
*I use ugly packing :o)..... If I can re-use it I will, therefore if you want this as a gift please let me know, and I will gift wrap it instead.
Thanks for looking
Emma
