Description
A stunning Murano art glass bowl from the 1960s, hand-blown by the Luigi Mandruzzato furnace (Molatura Vetri Murano). Executed in the sommerso technique—developed and perfected in Murano and notably advanced by designer Flavio Poli—this beautifully faceted, hexagonal, diamond-shaped piece features polished sides and top, and showcases a vivid combination of clear, light-blue, yellow/amber, and red glass layers that magnificently capture and reflect the light.

An exceptional, jewel-like decorative statement piece that can even be used for serving caviar. The bowl remains in very good condition, free of any damage. Diameter 5“, height 3.25“

Luigi Mandruzzato (born 1934 on Murano) is one of the best-known names in Venetian glass craftsmanship. The Mandruzzato family furnace, founded in 1934, became renowned under his direction for its mastery of vetri molati – faceted, hand-cut glass. From the 1960s onward, the workshop developed its iconic geometric sommerso vases and bowls, admired for their bold colors, clear lines, and crystalline facets. Alongside Seguso Vetri d’Arte with Flavio Poli, Archimede Seguso, and Venini with designers like Scarpa and Bianconi, Mandruzzato’s creations defined the artistic vitality of Murano in the mid-20th century.
