Creatività, stile, sperimentazione e innovazione convivono con tutti gli elementi della tradizione nelle perle della ditta S.U.V. fondata nel centro storico di Venezia durante gli anni ‘40 da Umberto Scognamiglio, consolidata dal genero Oscar Sito, il cui figlio Salvatore ne è oggi titolare assieme alla moglie Antonella. Nello storico laboratorio artigianale si respira ancora l’aria dell’autenticità dei prodotti, manufatti artistici di esperti perleri in cui il vetro si mescola e si confonde ad altri materiali preziosi. La lavorazione adottata dal laboratorio è principalmente “a lume”, una tecnica che permette di modellare una canna vitrea facendo raggiungere al vetro una temperatura tale da renderlo “morbido” e quindi modellabile. Con tale tecnica si creano innumerevoli nuances di colore, mescolando a caldo canne differenti e personalizzando ogni singolo pezzo con decori realizzati con finissime vette colorate, fuse sull’elemento di base, o mediante l’accorpamento ad esso di murrine, graniglia in vetro, foglie d’oro o d’argento. Oltre all’attività artigianale di lavorazione a lume, questi artigiani conservano un enorme archivio di perle e usano proprio il vetro storico per le loro creazioni, anche eseguite su misura, perché ne hanno una quantità infinita.

Creativity, style, experimentation and innovation coexist with all the elements of tradition in the pearls of the SUV company founded in the historic center of Venice during the 1940s by Umberto Scognamiglio, consolidated by his son-in-law Oscar Sito, whose son Salvatore is today the owner together with wife Antonella. In the historic artisan workshop you can still breathe the air of the authenticity of the products, artistic artifacts by perleri experts in which glass mixes and merges with other precious materials. The process adopted by the laboratory is mainly “lamp-based”, a technique that allows you to model a glass rod by making the glass reach a temperature that makes it “soft” and therefore modelable. With this technique, countless shades of color are created, by hot mixing different rods and personalizing each single piece with decorations made with very fine colored peaks, fused on the base element, or by combining it with murrine, glass grit, gold or silver leaves. In addition to the artisan activity of lampworking, these artisans keep an enormous archive of pearls and use historical glass for their creations, even made to measure, because they have an infinite quantity of them. If you are looking for those big antique glass beads but also want to compose something unique of yours with an infinity of other glass objects, this is the right place for you!
