Description

FAQs

Latticino is a traditional Venetian glassmaking technique originating from Murano during the Renaissance, characterised by opaque white or coloured glass threads embedded in clear glass to form delicate linear or net-like patterns.

These pieces are handblown using soda-lime glass, incorporating pre-formed cane rods of opaque white glass known as lattimo which are manipulated while molten to create intricate spiral or parallel stripes.

Authentic period pieces often exhibit minor irregularities, pontil marks on the base, slight asymmetry, and microscopic air bubbles within the glass matrix, distinguishing them from modern machine-made reproductions.

Displaying historical glassware on open shelving, mantelpieces, or inside glass-fronted cabinets allows light to pass through the delicate latticino threads, highlighting the intricate craftsmanship.

Antique glass should be washed by hand in lukewarm water using mild detergent, avoiding abrasive materials, extreme temperature fluctuations, and prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
