Murano Glass Vide-poches by Venini for Tecno, Designed by Osvaldo Borsani, 1960s

In the 1960s, the collaboration between Osvaldo Borsani and Venini glassworks marked a rare moment when industrial design met the artisanal perfection of Murano glass. This tray illustrates this search for balance between function and formal rigor. Produced by Tecno, it is made of hand-blown glass, in a deep black shade with amber reflections depending on the light.

The polished edge reveals Venini's technical mastery, which maintains a clear transparency on the base. Very good overall condition, slight signs of use consistent with age. The glass is beautifully even, with no chips or cracks.
