Introducing the Aria A Smoke Vase by Avec Arcade: a modern, hand-blown glass vase with a smoke finish that adds an elegant, contemporary touch to any room. Crafted with a unique, swirled design, this smoke vase is both decorative and functional.
Italian artist and designer Ivan Baj (1957) is creative director of the brand Arcade, which he founded in 1989. Ivan has designed Arcade’s Murano glasses alongside international artists and designers including Laura de Santillana, Paola Navone and Marcello Panza, having been in the hands of maestro Andrea Zilio for the past thirty years. Arcade’s pieces were exhibited at the Musée d’Orsay and the Beaubourg in Paris, at the Venice Glass Week, at Palazzo Litta and the Triennale in Milan, and are permanently held in the collection of the Museo del Vetro in Murano.
Arcade Murano captures the essence of Venetian glassmaking, blending centuries-old craftsmanship with a contemporary design sensibility. Each piece is handblown by master artisans on the island of Murano, showcasing luminous colors, delicate textures, and sculptural forms that celebrate the artistry of glass. From striking vases to sophisticated lighting, Arcade Murano’s creations are a testament to innovation within tradition. With an emphasis on refined elegance and impeccable quality, the brand brings a timeless yet modern touch to interiors, honoring the legacy of one of Italy’s most revered crafts.
