Craftmanship

The designer duo Matilde Antonacci and Dario Buratto form "Stories of Italy" and revisit Venetian craft heritage to create contemporary pieces. For diptyque, they are developing an exclusive collection of cups and vases reinterpreting the glass technique Macchia su Macchia, which means layer on layer. The coloured pattern is created by the successive application of pigments and coloured glass shards where opacity and transparency are mixed. This technique also evokes the marbles and mosaics in vogue in ancient Italy.
