A rare Venetian art glass vase made by Vetreria Archimede Seguso around the 1950s. Thick ribbed and twisted glass in blue and amber with a layer of clear glass. An authentic piece of Murano art glass from the 1950s in excellent condition. Archimede Seguso (1909-1999) is a renowned master glassmaker from Murano, famous for his innovative creations in the 1950s. This vase is an example of his artistic genius. For centuries, the name Seguso has been associated with the glass art of Murano. Archimede Seguso (1909–1999) is the iconic glassmaker of the family history in the 20th century. In the 1950s, Archimede reveals all his genius with creations such as the Merletto (lace), Reticello Piume (feathers), or Polveri (powdered) series. The collaboration with Tiffany & Co. Offers Seguso new opportunities for large collections. In 1989, Archimede Seguso celebrates his 80th birthday in New York with a solo exhibition — a title that speaks for itself: The Master of the Masters. His exhibitions around the world always meet with immense success and are sometimes extended twice. Bibliographic reference: Umberto Franzoi, Art Glass by Archimede Seguso, Verona 1991, page 126.
