Stunning mid-century modern Murano sommerso catch-all by Flavio Poli for Seguso (Murano, Italy, 1960s). Made of thick blue, yellow/orange and transparent glass. It is extremely decorative. Perfectly works as a catch-all, a vide poche, a small vase, an ashtray or just as a decorative object. Can be used as a display piece on any table.
Height: 10 cm/3.9''; length: 9 cm/3.5''; width: 9 cm/3.5''. Quite heavy (1.6 kg). Excellent vintage condition - some very light usual scratches.
"Sommerso" (Italian for ''submerged'') is a technique developed in Murano in the 1930s which became very popular in the 1950s-70s. The result is a glass with contrasting colours that is commonly cased by a clear layer. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
issues arising from misattribution
