Peter Marino is an American architect devoted to projects for luxury retail spaces: the Armani boutiques in New York, Chanel in Tokyo and Louis Vuitton in London, are just some of the many prestigious ones that bear his signature. His style is an unexpected and perfect combination of determination and elegance, and this harmony also emerges in the Black Belt collection created in 2017 for Venini. The technique used is called "immersed blown": after being blown, strips of color are cast on the glass which produce the characteristic decorative motif and finally the vase is immersed in a layer of crystal which becomes a thin coating. The result is dense, gritty and very precious, a glass sculpture that conveys all the craftsmanship of the Venini furnace and Marino's design skills. For true fans, Marino has also created a limited edition.

And this effect is the result of a specific process in which the glass is blown into an open mold made of steel strips. The depth of the grooves varies, therefore, depending on the intensity of the puff, and is different for each vase made, while the milk white color is obtained by inserting a layer of white glass combined with the transparent glass.

The name of the Folkifunki collection is a declaration of intent: its elements, in fact, recall the Portuguese folk style (tribute to the land of the Vista Alegre company) in the decorative motifs and retain the funky rhythm that characterizes the designer's production. The dominant colors are red and blue, with some golden detail that gives it a careless and unexpected elegance.
