Greg Natale | Vent Vase Nero & Arabescato

Crafted from layered marbles, the Vent Vase in Nero and Arabescato channels the architectural rigour and sculptural poetry of Carlo Scarpa’s Villa Ottolenghi. Its columnar form—structured by three outward-curving fins encasing a central core—captures the tension between weight and openness, echoing natural earth vents rising through stratified terrain.

The exterior panels in Nero marble bring dramatic intensity, their deep black surface streaked with expressive white veining. This striking darkness frames the central column of Arabescato marble, whose soft grey veining and luminous white tone introduce balance, refinement, and visual depth. The meeting of these two stones forms a dialogue between shadow and light, structure and softness, sophistication and raw geology.

A sculptural presence whether holding florals or standing alone, the Vent Vase is designed as an objet d’art—commanding yet quietly disciplined. Every piece is hand-carved and polished, ensuring the unique veining of the Nero and Arabescato marble makes each vase entirely one of a kind.

A testament to Greg Natale’s mastery of materiality and form, the Vent Vase is a contemporary artefact: architectural, expressive, and undeniably luxurious.
