In his role as principal designer and artistic director of Venini from 1925-1932, Napoleone Martinuzzi was responsible for creating some of the most visually striking and technically innovative art glass ever produced by the factory. Central to his mature work was a devotion to the revival and reinterpretation of classical forms, the exploration of color and the development of surface treatment. Chief among his contributions to the field was his experimentation in vetro pulegoso, with its many inclusions of tiny trapped air bubbles and foamy, lightly iridized surface designed to resemble chalcedony. The noble vase on offer fully embodies the complete range of Martinuzzi’s artistic values. Fashioned in a majestically classical shape, the vessel is enlivened by its jade green color, and transformed by its tactile, bubbly finish. Another vase of this model was exhibited at the 1928 XVI Biennale in Venice.
