Meticulously crafted in Italy circa 1970, the important, rectangular form features geometric lines that lend the piece a striking architectural presence. At its core, a luminous, rich cobalt blue interior seems to glow from within, encased in transparent glass that magnifies and deepens the submerged color in the signature Sommerso technique. This outstanding layering technique—revered for its complexity and visual depth—creates a captivating interplay of light and hue, emphasizing the purity and precision of Venetian glassmaking. Both bold and refined, the vase serves as a sculptural focal point and a collector's gem.
