A “Geacolor” vase, designed by Gae Aulenti, 1995,
for Venini, Murano, 2001, the hand-blown glass body covered with multi-coloured molten glass panels, incised signature: Venini 2001 Gae Aulenti, height 29 cm, (DRAX)
After the desired form has been prepared, the coloured glass is manually applied when still hot. This process is repeated for each colour. Finally the compact body is reheated so that the individual surfaces will blend. This application technique results in irregular surfaces, so that each and every vase will be a unique piece.
Lit.: F. Deboni, I Vetri Venini. Catalogo 1921–2007, vol. 2, Turin 1970, no. 367.
Provenance: private collection, Munich, Germany
