light step 013Paolo Castelli unveils vases made in transparent borosilicate glass, clear and high-quality glass, handicraft blown and shaped. To make them bright and at the same time resistant, after being completed they are tempered in special ovens at 600 ° C temperature.

 

Acqua Collection designed by Angelo Micheli  consists of transparent holders displaying a precious liquid as water, holding the clarity and freshness of water; containers made through a sensitive process that enhance the purity of water; vases shaped with great skill by master glassmakers who themselves drink water to restore from the hot temperatures of glass ovens; holders that let the water evaporate slowly quenching the environment; holders that express their concept through the movement of water.

 

Collection Hidrya designed by Alberto Nason consists of six vases, all together they create a family of holders that opens a dialogue between them comparing differences and different kinds of beauty; together these vases teach us the harmony of shapes and colors while maintaining their individual souls. The borosilicate glass technique was a great discovery for Nason, born in Murano, island with thousand-years tradition in glassmaking; in fact this technique has a different execution from the Murano’s one but even a natural born Muranese has appreciated the great these master glassmakers great artistry and passion that I find in Murano.
