Artistic Tradition
Rothko Contemporary Mirror
Craftsmanship and Made in Italy
Despite the great attention to its Venetian roots and artistic tradition, Arte Veneziana is always searching for new trends and new concepts of luxury.
From Milan, New York to Paris, just a few cities where our designers are based. Arte Veneziana has been their utopia where creating minimal or circular mirrors, amongst other pieces, is made possible. New techniques have been studied in order to give a cooler allure and allow them to fit into any modern space and contemporary home.
Handmade Luxury Mirror
Rothko Contemporary Mirror
Oval-Shaped Mirror
All supporting structures of “K.” Collection have been designed by joining points in space.
These structures define clear and three-dimensional geometries, in contrast with the spotted texture of the flat surface of each piece.
Metal frames serve as a pure structural support of the “lunar” surfaces, which play the main character in this collection.
"This collection has been developed in opposition of mere design themes. Art is the reference point, which constantly brings personal expression into interiors. Expressiveness is combined with both formal and functional aspects typical of furniture and design accessories".

K. Collection
A crossroad of lines draws shapes that change from every perspective of the observer
"A strong cultural background and the passion for art are both the core of this collection" - said Giovanni Luca Ferreri, architect and designer.
"Each collection that I designed shows deep roots into the art world. For K. Collection, I took inspiration from "Arte Informale" movement and its way to artistically treat surfaces. In these surfaces, there is a continuous search for abstraction and shape".
When Glass Looks Like the Lunar Surface
Inspired by Astrology Charts
Giovanni Luca Ferreri tells all about his K. Collection
"Manipulating the glass surface by corroding its mirrored finishing is a handmade process that can partially be controlled by manual skill. Each drop of salty solution that ruins the thin layer of mirrored finishing is actually a surprise.
The glass reacts differently every time, according to the time gap between the moment when each drop of salty solution touches the surface and when it dries.
This results in a uniquely different, corrosion of the mirrored surface every time. Timing is the key factor in this handmade process".
