Vintage Murano Sommerso faceted Vase in blue cobalt and turquoise

This exquisite vase from the 1970’s stands as a testament to the mastery of Murano glassmaking, showcasing the innovative Sommerso technique pioneered by the legendary Flavio Poli. Its faceted surface, a marvel of geometric precision, catches the light to reveal a mesmerising depth of colours, layered with expert care and artistic vision. The vase’s silhouette, elegant yet bold, is a tribute to the mid-20th century design principles that Poli championed, blending functional art with avant-garde aesthetics.

Crafted from the finest Murano glass, the piece is a symphony of colours, each hue distinct yet harmoniously blended through the Sommerso technique. This method, renowned for its complex layering process, imbues the vase with a dynamic interplay of light and shadow, with dark blue and light blue colours. The result is a captivating optical illusion of depth and movement, making the vase not just a vessel, but a living piece of art.
