Soffiato is a glass technique of thinly blown, transparent, one colored glass translated closely to reveal a direct relationship to the drawing. Vittorio Zecchin (born 1878-19470) Murano, Italy was an influential Italian glass designer. He attracted clientele of the time when his glass design evoked ancient and Renaissance classical styles while also fostering a new modern subtlety. This example expresses all the classical features in its ribbed urn shaped form and its semi precious color of amber. Zecchin collaborated with glassworks M.V.M. Cappellin & c., was founded by Giacomo Cappellin in 1925. Zecchin impact on Italian artists and designers was energized by the avant-garde point of view in Venice during the early years of the 20th century. • Literature 'The Final Chapter' The Martin Cohen Collection, p. 218.
