About the Art House

Seguso Vetri d’Arte is one of the most important and historic glass houses on the island of Murano, with roots tracing back to the 14th century and formal establishment in its modern artistic form in 1933. The firm became internationally recognized in the mid-20th century for its technical innovation, refined forms, and masterful use of color. Seguso pieces were widely exported to the United States during the 1950s and 1960s and are represented in major museum collections worldwide. The studio is particularly respected for its sculptural vessels, sommerso techniques, and sophisticated millefiori work.

About the Piece

This vibrant Murano art glass vase features a dramatic flared rim with a bold black cased lip and a gracefully tapered body. The surface showcases richly layered red, blue, and green glass with embedded millefiori canes forming colorful floral motifs across the lower body. Its substantial weight and polished base reflect quality mid-century Murano studio craftsmanship. At nearly 15 inches tall, it presents as a striking statement piece characteristic of Seguso’s expressive postwar designs. See less
