On Sale! ¥38,000 → *This item is a first-class piece of Venetian glass. Similar to Meissen, Venetian glass is classified into first-class and second-class items. Products with distortions in shape, uneven thickness, thinness, poor color (e.g., dark pink), numerous air bubbles, or gaps between murrini are sold locally as second-class or B-grade items at 1/5 to 1/3 the price of first-class items. *I'm also listing many other Venetian glass plates! Size: Diameter: Approximately 11cm Height: Approximately 1.5cm Kita-sando Chisa: ¥68,000 Title: "tempio primaverile" (Spring Temple) Only one of this design is ever made. This is a one-of-a-kind piece. This is a millefiori plate created by Dorian, a Venetian glass artist born and raised on Murano Island, in a small, family-run workshop on Murano Island, Venice. It was purchased for ¥58,000 at Chisa, a Venetian glass shop in Kita-sando. Dorian's works primarily feature plates and bowls with geometric patterns (sacred geometry). Unlike plates with randomly arranged murrine, the design and production of geometric patterns require high skill and considerable effort, so they are treated more as art pieces than tableware in Italy. Because the artist works alone, only a limited number can be produced, and they are only sold on Murano Island. In Italy, the arrangement of glass flower-patterned murrine, like a flower bed or flower garden, is called millefiori. Due to its beauty, many people display it as a decorative plate, but of course, it can also be used to serve food and sweets. Dorian's plates are small, but the number of murrine used is about the same as that of large plates from the Moretti workshop. Please compare it with the white Moretti plate in the background.
