Product information "Vase Lilla Menta 30 cm"
Two colours, one idea – and something quietly unexpected
Sometimes it’s the smallest contrast that makes an object truly stand out. The Opalino vase by VENINI in Lilla Menta captures exactly that balance: a soft, powdery violet exterior paired with a fresh mint interior. Standing 30 cm tall with a diameter of 14 cm, it follows the signature silhouette of the Opalino collection – a gently rounded body, an elegant neck and a subtly flared opening. Crafted from hand-blown Murano glass, the opaline finish creates a delicate, milky surface that softly diffuses light and blends the colours in a nuanced way. Depending on the angle and light, the effect shifts – sometimes calm and restrained, sometimes vivid and layered. Originally designed by Paolo Venini in 1932, it feels remarkably current even today.
A detail you don’t fully grasp at first glance
This glass vase doesn’t reveal everything immediately – and that’s precisely its charm. Whether placed on a dining table, a sideboard or within a shelving arrangement, it works best when given space. A single stem, a minimal arrangement or simply on its own, its form holds its presence effortlessly. The interplay between violet and mint creates a visual depth that feels subtle yet distinctive. It adapts to its surroundings, without ever becoming ordinary.
Murano glass between heritage and exploration
VENINI has long stood for glass objects that reinterpret tradition through design. Rooted in Venetian craftsmanship dating back to the 13th century, each piece reflects a heritage that continues to evolve. The Opalino collection expresses this legacy in a refined, understated language – enhanced by bold yet balanced colour compositions like Lilla Menta. Each vase is hand-blown, making it unique, shaped by skill, experience and a deep understanding of material. Now part of the DAMIANI Group, VENINI continues to embody Italian craftsmanship and contemporary design at its finest.
For interiors that allow quiet surprises
The Opalino vase in Lilla Menta integrates beautifully into a wide range of interiors – from soft, natural settings to more modern, structured spaces. Combined with other colours from the Opalino collection, it creates a harmonious yet dynamic composition. It may not be a piece that explains itself immediately. But it’s one that keeps revealing something new – adding a subtle, almost unexpected layer to any space.
