A Carlo Scarpa Vase Found in a Thrift Store Sells For $107,000 at Auction
When Jessica Vincent, who raises polo ponies on a farm outside Richmond, Virginia, was shopping at a Goodwill store in that city, she likely had no idea she might come upon a rare and perfectly intact glass vase by a renowned Italian designer that would fetch six figures at auction—but that’s exactly what happened.
That vase, the so-called “Pennellate” vase or Model 3664, by famed architect and designer Carlo Scarpa (1906–78) hit the block on December 13 at Wright Auction House, tagged with an estimate of $30,000–$50,000. It sold for $107,100.
“It’s an amazing story, that this very sophisticated piece of glass finds its way to Virginia,” said Richard Wright, founder of the auction house, in a phone interview. “It was expensive, not mass-produced, and it falls through the cracks all the way down to the Goodwill. It’s not even chipped.”
He added: “And this very charming woman who raises polo ponies finds it, and she isn’t sure what she’s found but she’s smart enough to do her research. She finds the Italian glass group on Facebook, and is smart enough not to sell it for the first offer she gets, of $10,000.”
Standing about 13½-inches high, the object dates from about 1947 and is made with pieces of applied opaque and transparent glass that mimic brushstrokes across the glass’s surface (pennellate means brushstroke in Italian). Scarpa designed it for the Italian art glass maker Venini, located on the Venetian island of Murano.
Wright Auction House described the vessel as one of the rarest pieces the house has offered in a decade of auctions, and in fact only one other vase with this exact color combination is known to exist, in what the house calls an established private collection. The vase was included in its “Important Italian Glass” sale, which also offered examples by designers including Ercole Barovier, Tomaso Buzzi, and Dino Martins.

The current auction high for a Scarpa vase is also a Venini piece, a Laccati Neri e Rossi from 1940 that fetched about $309,000 at Christie’s Paris in 2012, soaring past its high estimate of about $64,000, according to the Artnet Auction Price Database.
Trained as an architect and designer, Scarpa is known for his architectural renovations, his glass, and his industrial design. He has come in for a renewed round of attention in recent years, for example in an exhibition organized by contemporary sculptor Carol Bove and pairing her own work with his, at the Henry Moore Institute in Leeds, England and at Museion in Bolzano, Italy.
“Venini Glass by Carlo Scarpa: The Venini Company, 1932-1947” appeared at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 2013–14. It was while working with Venini, the museum said, that Scarpa “redefined the parameters of glassblowing in terms of aesthetics and technical innovation.” He created two dozen styles of vases, “pioneering techniques, silhouettes and colors that thoroughly modernized the ancient tradition of glassblowing.” In the 1930s and 1940s, their collaborations were on display at venues including the Milan Triennale and the Venice Biennale.

Week 5 Studio Update
Tumblr media
I've gone all in with the Domesticity of my work this week just to see what it would be like. All of the pieces I'm gathering and arranging came from the house/yard in one shape or another. There are some of my beloved books and objects, outlines of shadows, flowers, and actual trash piles. I want to highlight the importance of domestic work and in the process, some pent up anger came to the surface regarding all the social issues that surround it. It's often women (and often mothers) who take on the bulk of domestic work. I'm looking at it through a lens of a mother. This is an unpaid, under appreciated, time consuming, and yet invaluable role. It's also a forced role in some cases. Have you all seen the price of daycare? What about for multiple kids? Is the price another way of suppression? Feels like it. There's also religious, familial, and social pressure coming at you to stay home or else face the all the guilt associated with being a "bad mom", "bad wife", "bad housekeeper." It reminds me again of the story "Real Women Have Bodies" where it's impossible to fit being a woman into a neat little box. You're wasting yourself if you don't go work, but you're also neglecting your family duties if you do.
There's no right way to do it. The value is ethereal and misplaced.
I have friends who assert that being a mom and homemaker is their job and it's always bothered me. I'm only just realizing it's annoying to me because we have to make domestic work sound capitalistic to be worth anything and that really sucks. It doesn't have to be "a job" to be important. It can be a role or a lifestyle. We don't have to call it a job. The word job sounds like a place you just want to get through to make some cash in order to go home at the end of the day. We just need homemakers (people who make our home lives comfortable, clean, cheerful, well fed, organized, and restful) to be acknowledged as a vital part of our lives and survival.
I've been looking at Carol Bove's work from the early 2000's and almost directly using her influence to carefully arrange objects onto shelves.
