The present lot is an impressive and, in this colour-way, unique example created by Venini for the ballroom L’Arc en Ciel in Casteggio, Italy. The glass shades are designed using Ballòton and Pezzato techniques which, together with the choice of intensely striking colours, contribute to create a strongly decorative piece. Ballotòn is a technique used to achieve a particularly rich and elaborate effect, and the hive pattern is obtained by hand-blowing the glass into a cross hatched metal mount. Pezzato is a technique created by Fulvio Bianconi in 1950 and it was employed in a successful series of vases.
