Stunning mid-century modern diamond-shaped sommerso Murano glass ashtray/vide poche/catchall by Flavio Poli for Seguso (Murano, Italy, 1960s/1970s). Made of thick red, blue and transparent faceted glass. It is extremely decorative. Can be used as a display piece on any table.
Height: 7 cm/2.7''; length: 14 cm/5.5''; width: 14 cm/5.5''. Weight: 0,8 kg. Excellent vintage condition. No chips, no cracks. Minor very light 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 transparent 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
