For the seventh edition of The Venice Glass Week, designer Giberto Arrivabene Valenti Gonzaga presents a new project that will showcase and celebrate the essential function of the glass vase: a practical vessel used for the display of cut flowers.

Over the last six editions of the international glass festival, Giberto has presented a series of exhibitions which have been intimately connected with, and directly inspired by, the context and collections of Venice’s museums. The works in these shows resulted from the artist’s ongoing and evolving research into new forms and techniques in glassmaking. This September, however, Giberto will present an entirely new collection which has been designed with the everyday function of the vase in mind.
