Salento
The Sophistication of Decorated Glass. Made in Italy
Arte Veneziana, for over fifty years, committed to pursuing the excellence of Made in Italy craftsmanship, wanted to give free rein to the imagination and creativity of its designers and craftsmen. That’s how the finishing section was born. It recounts about accurate studies with colour and combinations between traditional and new materials expressed in a new, contemporary way.
The inspiration comes from nature and its landscapes. The ever shifting variety of colours and shapes are the subjects of the painted glass walls, of the pen-engraved screens, of the finishes of our furnishings. Each finish can be applied in a thousand different ways. You can furnish a wall, cover a cabinet, decorate the doors of a bespoke closet or even apply the decoration to coffee tables or nightstands and, why not, also to chandeliers with a modern twist.
HANDMADE FINISHING
by Gianluca Ferreri
Inspiration
Close your eyes and think of the warm sun, the crystalline waters of the sea, the sandy beaches alternating with cliffs overlooking the sea, the reflections, the shimmers.
Pure and at the same time rugged, this is the corner of the earth, the beating heart of Puglia, Salento.
Now open your eyes and savour the tribute that Giovanni Luca Ferreri wanted to imprint in the finishes dedicated to this unique territory. Unmistakable colours, realistic inspiration and at the same time artistic expressions, all contained in the creation of this particular glass covering.
Materials
Extra clear acid-etched glass, 6 mm thickness, an abstract artistically enameling made with spread white and dark blue colour. Varnished with gold paint and silvered with heavy antique finish.
Made in Italy
“You can't explain Salento. You have to experience Salento, because it enters your soul, it captivates you and never lets you go."Fabrizio Caramagna
