Fazzoletto Opalino is a vase made of opal glass, available in different colors and sizes.
An exclusive new take on the Opalini technique from the 15th century makes its colour unique. The creative genius of Fulvio Bianconi makes its shape inimitable, recalling skirts swaying in the breeze. Every Fazzoletto Opalini is truly unique: there's not another one like it anywhere.

Does it move with the wind? Will it move when I blow on it? Shall I try? Fazzoletto (‘Handkerchief’) is one of the first works designed by Fulvio Bianconi for Venini and is created by a master glassmith with a soft, but firm, sweeping gesture. A gesture that is art, magic, poetry and pride, as it has become part of the permanent exhibits at the MoMA in New York.
