Sommerso Murano Glass Vase by Flavio Poli for Seguso, Italy, 1950s–1960s

Creator: Flavio Poli
Offered by: MA+39

Description
A sculptural Murano glass vase designed by Flavio Poli for Seguso, showcasing the designer’s celebrated mastery of the sommerso technique. The form is softly faceted and organic, tapering toward the base with gentle vertical movement that enhances the depth of the glass layers.

A vibrant ruby-red core is encased within thick, clear crystal, creating striking optical effects and tonal shifts as light passes through the piece. Subtle hints of cool blue and amber reflections appear along the edges, emphasizing the precision of the layering and the richness of the material.

Elegant yet substantial, this vase reflects the refined experimentation of mid-century Venetian glassmaking and stands as a timeless decorative object, equally compelling as a standalone sculptural accent or within a curated Murano collection.
