Murano Sommerso Vase Sculptural Organic Amethyst

Magnificent small sculptural vase from Murano made using the iconic Sommerso technique. Weighing 422 g and measuring 18.5 cm in height and 9 cm in width, this authentic piece of Italian art glass features an asymmetrical organic silhouette with great fluidity. The alchemical principle of Sommerso involves immersing successive layers of molten glass, creating a sumptuous layering between a core of amethyst or deep purple colour and a thick protective shell of clear crystal. This process gives the object an enchanting three-dimensional optical depth and changing light refractions depending on the angle of observation. The bevelled neck showcases taut and dynamic lines, shaped freehand by Venetian master glassmakers in the pure spirit of mid-20th century modernist design. A major and high-end collectible piece, ideal for enhancing a contemporary or vintage interior. The condition is absolutely impeccable, with no defects, chips, or cracks.
