A practical object with a thousand functions

The vase , since ancient Greece has been an element linked both for materials and for its shapes, to other peoples who have used it. The original shape of this object starts from a narrow base, with an enlarged belly and then ends with a narrower edge or upper lip. Often right in the center of the belly, motifs or drawings were engraved, which reflected a lived moment. From this shape the jug for wine or water was born or the amphora was born to transport greater quantities of liquids or solids. Their peculiarity, differently from the vase, was that of having side handles, to facilitate their transport due to the greater weight. Precisely the amphorae from the Greek ἀμϕορεύς, or to be carried on both sides, were made of terracotta to transport: wine , oil , fish , honey , and could also be used for storage and/or transport thanks to a terracotta lid. In the local Italian tradition there are the orcio , the giara or the capasone .

The decorative vase and some notions of its history

Ceramic vases, as already mentioned, were used for the transport of goods between near and distant countries. The materials used for the realization of them are above all: terracotta , porcelain , alabaster , or those used by nomadic populations such as leather, lighter and more compatible with personal transport. Finally, since ancient times they were also used as cinerary vases or funerary urns , containers currently used to contain the ashes of the deceased after cremation. The production of Italian ceramics , from the 15th century to the 17th century, influenced the birth of jugs or wedding trousseaus and the most famous are those of Faenza or Capodimonte while as regards the glass vases they are made of blown glass by master glassmakers in the glassworks of the center of the lagoon, and we all know the famous Murano glass vases
