Large Faceted Murano Glass Bowl for Caviar, Italy, 1960s

An amazing Murano art glass bowl from the 1960s, hand-blown by the furnace Luigi Mandruzzato (Molatura Vetri Murano). Executed in the sommerso technique - developed and perfected in Murano and notably advanced by the designer Flavio Poli - this beautifully faceted, hexagonal, geode-shaped piece features polished sides and a flat polished top, showcasing a vibrant combination of light blue, yellow/amber, and beautiful layers of "copper to rose" glass that beautifully capture and reflect light. An exceptional decorative piece akin to a jewel that can be used to serve caviar. The bowl remains in very good condition, with no damage. Diameter 6, height 3.
