Found in the middle section of the vase’ neck, there is a round glass medallion with letter “m”, indented into it for Maestro Imperio Rossi.

This grand Murrine Millefiori decorative flower vase was hand-blown in Murano, Italy by Maestro Imperio Rossi for Vetreria Di Pi. The Vetreria Artistica DiPi glassworks has been founded in Murano in 1986 by Imperio Rossi, followed by Mario Costantini. Imperio entered in the world of glass when he was only a boy of 13, following his father's steps and working side-by-side with some of the most important and talented Murano glass-masters, refining his skills and learning ancient secrets of this charming art.

The production at DiPi's was at the beginning focussed on artistic vases, plates, and wedding favors, shifting later to the Millefiori technique by using Murrine, and creates objects of unmistakable Venetian taste, recognized worldwide. Some of Impero Rossi's creations are shown in the museums of Tokyo, Vienna, Madrid and New York. See less
