Vaso Roma

Vase A is the taller, narrower form finished in ocean glass with a dipped champagne base. Vase C is shorter and wider, offered in warm amber with the same champagne base treatment. Both are produced in Murano, Italy by Arcade.

Mouth-blowing requires a glassblower to shape molten glass using breath and hand tools alone, without mechanical molds. The resulting form carries subtle variations that are inherent to the process, making each piece genuinely individual rather than perfectly uniform.

Ivan Baj is a designer and creative force behind Arcade Murano, a Venetian atelier dedicated to preserving and evolving the traditions of Murano glassmaking. His work sits at the intersection of classical craft and contemporary form.

Yes. Because each piece is mouth-blown and hand-shaped by Murano artisans, the Roma Vase is produced to order. Lead times reflect the care required at each stage of production.

Murano glass vessels of this type are generally suitable for water and cut flowers, though their primary identity is as sculptural objects. It is advisable to confirm care instructions with the point of purchase, as some finishes or forms may have specific recommendations.
