ORIGIN: Italy c1880. The genuine Venetian bottles were made by pressing globs of glass mixed with foil onto the bottles. Millefiori and murrhine canes with tiny portraits or figurals in them decorate some of the most rarest of examples. Another interesting technique is the usage of aventurine( goldstone) threading to create patterns or stripes in the glass. This was sparkling goldstone effect was achieved by adding minute particles of copper into the colored molten glass threads then inlaid onto the hot surface of the bottle. The most well known makers of these bottles were the highly talented Italian glass artists: Giovanni Battista Franchini, Pietro Bigaglia and Antonio Salviati Watch for more wonderful RARE vintage and antique items being addedPlease Visit my store to see more.....
