A quiet colour that speaks without words
Some colours don’t need to be bold to make an impression. The Lilla Menta vase by VENINI in its 12.5 cm size is a perfect example. Its soft violet tone feels almost weightless – like a delicate layer of colour that settles gently into a space. With both height and diameter measuring 12.5 cm, it is compact, balanced and easy to place. Crafted from mouth-blown Murano glass and finished with the iconic Balloton texture, the surface captures light and reflects it in subtle, shifting nuances. Designed by Paolo Venini in 1970, this vase combines traditional craftsmanship with a surprisingly modern sense of lightness.
Where texture meets transparency
The Balloton technique gives the vase its distinctive surface. Created by blowing glass into a metal mould, it forms a fine diamond pattern that brings the glass to life. Combined with the transparent finish, it creates a gentle interplay of light and shadow that changes throughout the day. The Lilla Menta colour reveals different facets depending on the setting – sometimes cooler, sometimes warmer. Whether styled with a few stems or left empty, it introduces a calm, fresh presence.
A tradition that continues
VENINI represents the art of Murano glassmaking, rooted in a history that dates back to the 13th century. Each piece is crafted with care and reflects a deep understanding of material and technique. Now part of the DAMIANI Group, VENINI brings this heritage into a contemporary context, combining craftsmanship with modern design. The Monofiori Balloton collection embodies this balance – timeless forms, classic techniques and a refined aesthetic.
A detail that transforms a space
The Lilla Menta vase in 12.5 cm is ideal for small arrangements or as a subtle accent on tables, shelves or windowsills. Combined with other colours and sizes from the collection, it creates layered yet harmonious compositions. Or it simply stands on its own – showing how much impact a single, well-chosen object can have.
