(Production was limited to 99 pieces of each color combination and produced between mid-1993 - the beginning of 1994)

The series was created to be modular, with fully-interchangeable parts, and came with an array of base sizes and elements like vases and lamps. This vase has a solid glass base made of deep amethyst glass cased in clear, with a satinated exterior and polished ends. The flared-rim vase is vivid yellow cased in a vibrant forest green exterior.

The two elements are joined by a threaded screw. The vases are signed to the base 'Venini 93', and the base bar is signed on one polished end 'Venini 94' - it wasn't uncommon for different 'Antefila' parts to be produced at different times, one perhaps being stored longer than the other, before being packed together at the factory.
