The Sciroco Screen is part of Arte Veneziana’s acclaimed MELT Collection, designed by Leo De Carlo as a tribute to Murano’s glass-casting artistry. Each screen is individually handcrafted in Venice, featuring baked glass panels with soft, irregular contours and partial silvering that reflect light like the Venetian lagoon. Accompanied by an Authenticity Certificate, every piece assures provenance, craftsmanship, and exclusivity—making it a true collector’s object of functional art.

Designed as both partition and sculpture, the Sciroco Screen introduces a sense of fluidity and luminosity to interiors. Its layered glass composition diffuses natural light beautifully, creating a play of reflection and shadow that evokes the tranquil movement of water. Perfect for living rooms, suites, and gallery spaces, it defines areas without obstructing openness—offering a balance of transparency, artistry, and architectural elegance suited to contemporary and classic settings alike.

The screen is composed of two layers of baked glass sheets with irregular, handcrafted edges, subtly silvered on the back to enhance depth and reflection. It stands on a burnished brass metal frame, adding a warm contrast to the cool translucency of glass. The technique draws from Murano’s centuries-old glass fusion processes, where the material’s natural irregularity is celebrated rather than concealed—echoing Venice’s shimmering lagoon and its ever-changing hues.

For maximum visual impact, position the Sciroco Screen where natural or ambient light can flow through it—such as beside tall windows, between living zones, or as a statement backdrop in a reception suite. The screen’s soft silvered surface subtly transforms throughout the day, revealing new reflections with each light change. Whether placed alone or paired symmetrically, it serves as a conversation-starting centerpiece that elevates any curated interior.

Because each Sciroco Screen is handcrafted with delicate baked glass and silver detailing, gentle care is essential. Dust regularly using a soft, dry microfiber cloth. For deeper cleaning, lightly moisten the cloth with distilled water and avoid ammonia-based or abrasive products that may dull the silvering or brass. Ensure the screen is placed on a stable, level surface away from high-traffic zones. With mindful handling and the assurance of its Authenticity Certificate, this masterpiece will retain its brilliance and artistic integrity for generations.
