GIORGIO FERRO RED AND GREEN SOMMERSO GLASS TEARDROP VASEA very slender single stem teardrop shaped vase of ruby red glass encased in a clear layer of crystal with a greenish tint. Often confused for the work of Flavio Poli, this vase, produced using Poli's famous sommerso technique, was designed by Giorgio Ferro and produced in the 1960s at his father's glass factory, La Vetreria Artistica Galliano Ferro, where Giorgio was the head designer. VETRERIA ARTISTICA GALLIANO FERRO was founded in Murano in 1955

A very slender single stem teardrop shaped vase of ruby red glass encased in a clear layer of crystal with a greenish tint.  Often confused for the work of Flavio Poli, this vase, produced using Poli's famous sommerso technique, was designed by Giorgio Ferro and produced in the 1960s at his father's glass factory, La Vetreria Artistica Galliano Ferro, where Giorgio was the head designer. 

VETRERIA ARTISTICA GALLIANO FERRO was founded in Murano in 1955 after its founder, Galliano Ferro, left Arte Vetraria Muranese (AVeM), the company he had co-founded in 1932.  The aim of Galliano Ferro was to produce high-quality objects using techniques that were typical of Murano glass.  From the outset, Galliano’s son, Giorgio Ferro, was the creative force behind his father’s company.

Born on the island of Murano in 1931, Giorgio Ferro attended the Instituto d'Arte di Venezia, a prestigious high school for the arts where the teachers were artists themselves.  Initially he dedicated himself to painting, but after graduating from the Carmini State Institute of Art in Venice in 1951, he went to work  as a designer at the Arte Vetraria Muranese (AVeM) factory–which was founded by his grandfather Antonio Ferro, his father Galliano Ferro, and by Emilio Nason and Giulio Radi.   After the death of Giulio Radi in 1952, the young Giorgio took the role of lead designer of AVeM.  It is during this time that Giorgio first created his most significant work of the period, the very successful Ansa Volante vases, made of thick chromatic iridescent glass–a technique that he had learned from Radi, and designed with sinuous curves, small openings and large integrated handles pulled directly from the body of the vase to produce a remarkable sculptural effect.. These designs were exhibited in the 1952 Venice Biennale to great acclaim.

In 1955, after having worked together for 22 years, relationships between the partners of AVeM turned sour and Galliano Ferro left the firm to open an independent furnace, taking with him some of the best maestros as well as his own sons.  Giorgio immediately fell into place as the artistic director of the new furnace and began designing thin blown glass pieces as well as encased glass pieces using the sommerso technique.   The great harmony of form in the designs produced by Giorgio Ferro – rightly considered one of the greatest glass designers of twentieth-century Murano – would result in the company gradually focusing on the production of light fittings in which traditional methods were used to reinterpret form.  Venetian lamps of different eras were produced, from the Renaissance to Art Nouveau, and the work was all performed manually, and to great accuracy, by the most skilled glass masters of the sector, using the same instruments and ovens of the past.  A lot of the proposed chandeliers were designed and created by Giorgio Ferro, who was known for creating objects lightly blown in transparent faint colors.  Other collaborators included such masters as Ezio Rizzetto, Fulvio Bianconi and Vinicio Vianello.

Giorgio Ferro took over the reins of the family company in 1972, focusing production entirely on the creation of traditional chandeliers together with newer and more original ones, to become one of the greatest designers of chandeliers in Murano.  In 2001, Giorgio Ferro’s son Alvis took over as the artistic head of the company. The Vetreria Artistica Galliano Ferro is now led by Paola and Lisa Ferro

great book
Format: Kindle
I am really excited to meet the author at the book retreat this month. I really enjoyed this world that she built and most of the female main character Huntress is so awesome. She goes through a lot in this book and the ending; wow! I wouldn't have even guessed. I highly recommend everyone to read this book. I have been so lucky this year that almost all the books I have read have been, so far, 5 out 5 stars.

Fallen for the Fallen Angel – A Guilty Pleasure Worth Every Page
Format: Kindle
There’s something deeply irresistible about a dark academia or trial-based setting, a brooding and arrogant fallen angel, and a fierce heroine with enough sass to go toe-to-toe with him. Wings So Wicked is exactly that kind of book—and I devoured it in just a couple of days. To be fair, the plot isn’t groundbreaking. If you’re looking for something fresh and innovative in terms of storyline, this might not be it. But if your reader heart beats faster at the mere mention of enemies-to-lovers, jealousy-fueled banter, magical trials, betrayals, and forbidden tension—you’ll feel right at home. It’s like catnip for those of us with this particular weakness. The chemistry between the leads could have used a slightly slower burn to make the tension sizzle longer, but I still found myself completely invested in their dynamic. There are moments and phrases that feel a bit cheesy or underdeveloped, but honestly? I didn’t care. The vibes were exactly what I wanted. This book isn’t trying to reinvent the genre—it’s here to give readers like me what we crave: high-stakes magical drama, angsty romance, and the thrill of watching a badass girl and her brooding counterpart clash and spark. If that sounds like your kind of story, Wings So Wicked will hit the mark. Here’s hoping Book 2 turns up the heat and keeps the magic alive.

Ok so I never write reviews but this book was so good I felt the need to write this. Firstly your introduced to Huntyr you see her closed off hard core badass than towards the end you see the most subtle change and growth it’s amazing and the enemies to friends to lovers was just perfect, AND THE TWIST AT THE END GOT ME GOOD! You see one spicy scene the whole book but it doesn’t even MATTER BECAUSE THE BOOK WAS THAT GOOD. I’ve read 85 books in 2023-2024 so far and I’m pround to say this is my all time favorite. I’m so excited to read more of Emily Blackwoods books, this was my first time reading one of hers and I’m glad I did because HOLY!! Well done Emily well done

Fast paced romantasy you will not want to put down!
Format: Kindle
4.25 stars! I LOVED this book with similar vibes to Hush Hush, Fourth Wing, and The Serpent and the Wings of Night! It was fast paced with easy world building and will keep you turning the pages late into the night because you will not want to put it down! Huntyr is a fierce bad@ss FMC trained to kill vampyres her entire life. She is sent on a mission to go to the academy and earn her spot into The Golden City. Upon arrival, she is forced to room with the delicious fallen angel, Wolf, who is the only one who knows about her assassin identity. The romance, the plot twists, the secrets revealed, the battles, and the tantalizing training scenes had me hooked! And that ending…. I’m holding my breath in need to know hell! Read if you love: 🪽 Fae, Vampyres, Fallen Angels 🪽 Academy setting with magical trials 🪽 Forced proximity and slow burn 🪽 Rivals to lovers 🪽 Hidden identities and secrets 🪽 Tend your wounds “𝘖𝘧 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦 𝘐 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘸𝘢𝘵𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘺𝘰𝘶.

Excellent Rivals to Lovers!!
Format: Kindle
The tension and banter between Huntyr and Wold was delectable. I absolutely love the fallen angel and all of his flaws. Huntyr is amazing too being a badass FMC with some major trauma. The world building was great and I enjoyed the training aspect of the story. The writing was immersive and was in the story the whole time. The ending had quite a twist that I hadn’t anticipated and made my jaw DROP. Excellent job! I also loved the narration. Laura is one of my fave narrators!
