Paolo Venini (1895-1959) Inciso Vase 1956-59 model 3681, designed 1956, for Venini, blown glass with wheel carved inciso surface texture, three line acid-stencil 'venini murano ITALIA' height 7 3/4in (19.5cm); diameter 5 1/2in (14cm) Fußnoten The model was produced by Paolo Venini after a form that had been devised by Carlo Scarpa during his tenure at the firm during the 1930s. The example that was presented at the Venice Biennale in 1956 was also in light violet glass like the present lot. It is possible, considering that Paolo Venini and Oscar Stonorov had begun work together early that year on the Solidarity House commission in Detroit, that the example shown at the Biennale was gifted to Stonorov on one of his subsequent visits to Paolo Venini and his workshop. Provenance Paolo Venini Venice Oscar Stonorov Pennsylvania, gifted by the above 1956-59 Thence by Descent Exhibited XXVIIIe Venice Biennale, 1956 Literature Marino Barovier & Carla Sonego, 'Paolo Venini and his Furnace', Skira, 2016, p. 250
