Product description
This sumptuous heavy glass art bowl
embodies the excellence and prestige of mid-century
Italian design. Designed by the great master
glassmaker Flavio Poli for the famous house
Seguso Vetri d'Arte in Murano, the piece perfectly
applies the mythical Sommerso technique.
A heart of rare intense emerald green is
magically suspended in the center
of a transparent crystal block of absolute purity.
Entirely hand-shaped and mouth-blown,
the object is structured around fluid lines, beveled
curves and folded organic lips that create
a fascinating three-dimensional play depending on the incidence
of light. Initially designed as a ceremonial ashtray,
this sculptural bowl now serves as a catch-all
or an expert centerpiece to enhance
sideboards and interiors of Mid-Century collectors.
