On September 17th, in the middle of Venice Glass Week 2024, was exhibited for the first time to the public The Nectars Collection by The Merchant of Venice in collaboration with the Fondazione Musei Civici di Venezia. In the evocative the Museum of Palazzo Mocenigo, Study Center for History of Textiles, Costume and Perfume, the city is celebrated through the union of some of elements that define it: the art of glass, artistic perfumery and architecture. The result is three essential oil fragrances that encapsulate the unique soul of Venice.
The bottle was ideated by designer Michela Cattai and brought to life by Venetian artisans. The glass masters of Murano have put into practice ancient techniques of the art of blown glass, in which Venice has specialized since antiquity.
The essential oil is kept in a glass box that reminds to the peculiarities of Venetian architecture, while the process of creating fragrances is inspired by an old recipe from the Regale Unguentum of Plinio il Vecchio. Tradition, culture, art and luxury come together to create a unique collection where Made in Italy is at its best.
During the presentation at the Palazzo Mocenigo Museum, the CEO of The Merchant of Venice Marco Vidal and the designer Michela Cattai talked about the creative project from the concept to the actual Nectars. The collection is a limited edition that varies in three colors (amber, red and green), having fifty pieces crafted for each shade, and three fragrances – inebria nectar, royal nectar and dulcis nectar. The oils are very concentrated and give the skin a unique, intense and unmistakable scent.
The Merchant of Venice has captured the beauty and energy of Venice, creating fragrances that reveal its secular traditions.
With The Nectars Collection we want to elevate even more the history of a city that never stops to fascinate the world.
