Murano sommerso glass vase, 1960s, in the style of Flavio Poli

Murano Sommerso Glass Vase, 1960s, in the Style of Flavio Poli for Seguso. A stunning Murano sommerso glass vase, created in the 1960s. This piece of glass art is distinguished by its elegant layering of color: a deep pink rises toward the opening, while an intense blue inclusion appears at the base, all enclosed in a mass of clear crystal. This effect, called sommerso (Italian for "submerged"), is an iconic Murano technique that involves dipping multiple layers of colored glass into clear glass to create unique depth and luminosity. The design is strongly reminiscent of the creations of Flavio Poli for Seguso Vetri d'Arte, a master glassmaker recognized as one of the inventors and great masters of sommerso. Although this vase bears no signature or label, it clearly adheres to this typical Italian modernist style of the 1950s and 1960s. The simple, modernist shape, the thickness of the glass, and the substantial weight (approximately 2.5 kg) are a testament to the quality craftsmanship, representative of the finest Murano productions.
