Bring a refined and modern artistic statement into your home with Bucaneve, an extraordinary head sculpture in authentic Murano glass, inspired by the bold creativity of Picasso. This collectible piece is a breathtaking tribute to both contemporary art and centuries-old Venetian glassblowing tradition.
From canvas to glass, this sculpture transforms the expressive essence of Picasso’s portraits into a three-dimensional masterpiece, merging vibrant color blocks, clean lines, and abstract elegance. It is more than just décor – it’s a story of artistic passion, technical mastery, and Italian luxury.
Bucaneve is the perfect fusion of modern design and artisanal heritage. Whether placed in a living room, entryway, or private study, this sculpture immediately becomes the focal point of the space. Its bold yet harmonious design draws the eye, while its striking palette of black, white, orange, yellow, red, blue, and green offers endless visual intrigue.
The sleek black hairline framing the face contrasts beautifully with the vibrant warm tones of the complexion, while subtle blue and red accents add depth and dynamism. This perfect harmony of colors and shapes ensures the sculpture fits effortlessly into both contemporary and classic settings.
Every Bucaneve sculpture is born in the fiery heart of Murano, where master glassmakers (Maestri Vetrai) transform raw materials into works of art. The process begins with the master’s vision, often sketched on paper and hung near the furnace for reference.
Inside the incandescent heat of furnaces exceeding 1,000°C, silica sand and minerals melt into glowing molten glass. The master, assisted by his serventi (skilled helpers), gathers, shapes, and colors the glass while it is still fluid. Each movement must be swift, precise, and perfectly coordinated, as the glass cools quickly and becomes rigid.
Colored canes and mineral pigments are incorporated directly into the mass, allowing light to refract through layers of vibrant hues. Once shaped, the sculpture undergoes annealing – a slow cooling process that prevents internal stress and ensures durability.
The result is an enduring work of art, alive with both tradition and modernity.
Whether you have strolled through Venice’s winding canals or dream of visiting someday, Bucaneve brings a piece of that magic into your home. Its artistic essence captures the Venetian lifestyle – an elegant balance of history, culture, and creativity.
Owning an authentic Murano glass sculpture means embracing over 700 years of artistry, passed down through generations on the island of Murano. This piece is not only a decorative object but also a cultural artifact, carrying with it the pride and soul of Venetian craftsmanship.

Please note: Each sculpture is entirely handmade, making it unique and unrepeatable. Minor variations in color, shape, or decorative details may occur, and slight differences from the product photos on our website are normal.
