1960s mid-century pink ashtray or catchall in bullicante Murano glass by Flavio Poli

This mid-century modern ashtray or catchall, designed by the legendary Flavio Poli, was hand-blown in Murano, Italy, during the 1960s. This piece showcases a soft vibrant pink colour palette, making it a quintessential example of the era's sophisticated Italian glass artistry. Blending functional utility with sculptural elegance, the piece features the prestigious bullicante technique, characterised by a perfectly spaced grid of controlled air bubbles trapped within the glass. This creates a mesmerising textural depth and plays beautifully with ambient light. The item is in excellent condition.
