Description
This set of Venetian art glass consists of a footed urn and a small bud vase, both produced in the Murano Tre Fuochi (Three Fires) tradition. Each piece is crafted from hand-blown ruby red glass decorated with 24 karat gold overlay and hand-painted raised enamel floral motifs. The footed urn features a wide flared rim and a body decorated with scroll-bordered gold bands framing bouquets of pink, blue, and white flowers. It rests on a twisted gilt-covered stem and circular foot. The bud vase is of baluster form with matching floral decoration on a gold ground. The Tre Fuochi technique involves three separate kiln firings to fuse the glass, gold, and enamel components.
Footed Urn Height: 11.75 inches
Bud Vase Height: 3.5 inches.
Condition report:
Both items are in excellent condition. No visible chips, cracks, or structural repairs are present. The raised enamel decoration remains intact. There is minor surface wear to the gilt finish on the undersides of the bases consistent with age and handling.
