Ritagli

The unique aesthetic of each Venini Ritagli vase moves away from conventional smoothness, exploding with the dynamic play of light, intricate relief, and visual volume. This is another versatile Murano glass collection that exists between a functional home decor accessory and an art object, which makes it very interesting not only for collectors but also for design pros and lovers of unique interiors.

Just look how these objects radiate an unusual, powerful energy of creative chaos and smart luxury: they seem alive, tactile, and they practically scream high-end quality. They are undoubtedly deserving of both attention and admiration.

The Art of Creation: Making the Venini Ritagli Vase

Ritagli vases were born thanks to the meticulous work of the artistic mind of Fulvio Bianconi, who transferred the traditional Italian technique of weaving cut strips (ritti) onto colored Murano glass. But instead of leather or wicker, in the Venini workshops, they use glass ribbons, which experienced masters fold layer by layer with such precision and speed before the mass cools down. The production process is truly unique, as even a single careless movement can damage the complex, scale-like structure. The result is a piece that is impossible to replicate exactly, as the placement of each individual fragment is entirely unique.

Using Ritagli Vases in Interior Design

The Venini Ritagli vase is, first and foremost, a striking tool for creating a memorable interior. It is important to choose the right color variation, and it will look impressive and harmonious in spaces decorated in contemporary, high-tech, or strict Scandinavian styles, in modern apartments with minimalist design, bold lofts, or neoclassical areas. The variety of the color palette opens up even more possibilities for creative concepts and design projects:

Ginkgo Biloba. It’s such a fresh, vibrant green that mirrors the actual leaves of the Ginkgo tree. It gives the piece a really natural, balanced feel.

Moka. This shade creates a dual sense of warmth and formal elegance. Depending on how the glass is layered, you get these beautiful shifts in transparency and depth all across the piece.

Snow. The version looks just like a sculpture made of ice, where the pure white color highlights every textured scale.

Green / Aquamarine. This combination resembles the shimmering of ocean water, where layers of glass overlap, where stripes overlap to create depth and freshness.

Lilla / Menta. This color highlights the complex texture of the surface and creates a soft contrast between warm and cool tones.

Pesca. This Venini Vase is made in a very delicate, almost tasty peach color that feels velvety thanks to the multilevel glass strips and softly glows depending on the thickness of the overlapping glass fragments.

Amber / Light Pink. The glass background creates a feeling of a warm sunset.  It really shows off the Venetian craftsmanship and the many coatings of glass, creating these beautiful, soft gradients.

Sand / Red. This version of the Venini Ritagli vase looks like an exotic flower or hot sand with sparks of fire. It’s a bold look that really highlights how unique this whole collection is.
