Very light, thin and delicate, with a beautiful bright dove gray color that has a white coating on the inside.

The Murano vase, blown entirely by hand, is of an unprecedented lightness; characteristic of the Murano glassworks of that period. Almost spherical in shape, it resembles a flat Roman vase. Its color has a dove gray base with a white interior. The incamiciato glass is a type of glass similar to the sommerso glass, but usually thinner. The object is therefore made up of various layers of different thickness and color that create incredible chromatic effects. In this way, a thin puff of two or more layers of different colors will be obtained.
