Murano Glass Ashtray, Triangular, Red/Blue Sommerso. Flavio Poli Seguso c.1970s

About the Item

A 1970s Murano glass ashtray, attributed to Flavio Poli for Seguso. Handcrafted using the sommerso technique, where layers of differently coloured glass are submerged within one another to create a striking effect. The design features a layer of bright red glass over a subtle sky blue layer, encased in crystal-clear Murano glass. The vibrant play of colour is further accentuated by the geometric shape of the ashtray. Meticulously shaped and polished into a sharp triangular form, with each point channelled to hold a cigarette. The base, with its sharply polished 45-degree angles, resembles a finely cut gemstone. Each sharp and perfectly smooth facet adding depth and sparkle, beautifully showcasing the interplay of red and blue tones within the faceted glass. Dimensions: Depth: 10 cm Width: 12 cm Height: 8 cm This vintage Murano glass ashtray is in good condition for its age and use, with some minor age-related flaws. Tiny chips and light surface scratches are present on the sharp, faceted edges and base, but these do not detract from its overall appeal.
