Consisting of 18 elements, Carlo Moretti’s Monolite Gotico sculpture nods to the ’90s glass sculptures that were inspired by Manhattan at night. The red checked piece is edged, squared out and then fused together by hand by Carlo Moretti himself, before being cut, ground by sandstone and beautifully polished using a wheel. Ideal for use as a decorative object or bookend.

Murano-born brothers, Carlo and Giovanni Moretti set out to experiment with innovative glassware designs, colours, and materials in 1958. Home to the Venetian lagoon, the pair use their birthplace as a constant source of colour and design inspiration. Every piece of glass is individually mouth-blown and numbered by glassmakers in the Murano factory, making each object a one-of-a-kind collector’s item.
