Each
one-of-a-kind vessel made by the Schiavon’s masters expresses harmony and
balance and is completely handmade according to the ancient Murano traditions.
The technique is distinguished primarily by the composition of the colors,
achieved by heating together multicolor glass canes at 750°C which are then
fused and blown with clear crystal. The majority of these art pieces are then
cold-worked and hand-ground by a diamond wheel. After cooling, the glass is
enriched by difficult and delicate cold working details. Cutting the glass
surface creates facets and texture, giving extraordinary contrasts and
interesting optical effects. Compositions of form, pattern and color are always
different in each vessel, creating an art piece that can be considered
absolutely unique in design.
