Sommerso Flavio Poli Ashtray Bowl 1.2kg Murano 1960

Pocket bowl or ashtray in an organic shape made in the 1960s by Flavio Poli for Seguso Vetri d'Arte (Murano). With a height of 7 cm, a width of 12 cm, a remarkable glass thickness of 2 cm, and a weight of 1.256 kg, this piece illustrates the Sommerso technique. The process involves layering a bright orange-red tinted glass core within a thick transparent crystal shell, creating deep optical refraction and amber colour modulations around the edges. The silhouette is oval, and the base is polished flat. The condition is rare for an object of this age: the piece is in perfect condition, free from any chips, cracks, or notable signs of use, preserving the integrity of its edges and the original brilliance of its polish.
