Description from the seller
Stunning glass bowl / centerpiece in violet and turquoise blue art glass, 1960s-1970s.
Magnificent blown glass sculpture, using the Sommerso technique (layering intense amethyst violet, aqua blue, and clear crystal), typical of the finest Venetian creations from the mid-century era.
Not signed
Features :
Height: 170 mm
Length: 340 mm
- Width: 320 mm
- Weight: 2800 g (very thick glass, full mass quality)
Fluid and organic freeform, with elegantly raised and folded edges.
Deep and vibrant colors: amethyst purple and turquoise blue, with effects of depth and hypnotic reflections.
Condition: very good, no chips, no cracks, no significant scratches – perfect shine, just some micro traces of use inside, which are completely normal and almost invisible in presentation.
A true decorative work of art that captures and plays with light in a spectacular way. Perfect as a centerpiece, on a console, a fireplace, or a beautiful coffee table.
A highly sought-after piece in these dimensions and with these iconic colors of Sommerso Murano.
