Henry Summa Sommerso Helix Sculpture, American Studio Art Glass
By Henry Summa
Located in Clifton Springs, NY
Graphic art glass sculpture or paperweight was created with intertwining blue glass spiral coil helixes and controlled bubbles core fused in clear glass layer in sommerso technique. The sculpture has triangular shape with slightly elevated base and soft, rounded edges; the minimal shape of the piece allows the bold flow of the pattern to take the center stage.
The vase is signed and dated by the artist in etching on the bottom; it is in good vintage condition with minimal, age-appropriate signs of use on the bottom. Rare, hard to find example of New Mexico studio glass would make a great gift to any studio glass or art collector.
Henry Summa (1949-2008) has been working in glass since 1972. His early training in the glass arts was based on an apprenticeship at renowned Glory Hole Glassworks in New Mexico. Canyon Road Studio, known then as Glory Hole Glassworks, was owned by Peter Vanderlaan...

Murano Glass Rabbit Sculpture by Ferro & Lazzarini Uranium 1960s
Located in Glasgow, GB
A 1960s Murano glass rabbit sculpture by the renowned Venetian glassmakers Ferro & Lazzarini.
This retro Murano glass sculpture combines the kitsch style of 1960s Italy with the exceptional Venetian glassmaking skill that has made the island of Murano so famous.
The main glass used in crafting the sculpture is uranium glass, which reveals a beautiful, soft lime-green hue in natural light and becomes luminous, emitting a bright fluorescence under UV light.
The piece is further decorated with a vivid blue ribbon of Murano glass, highlighting the rabbit’s back. Hand-applied details in vibrant scarlet red glass dot the paws, nose, and eyes, creating a vibrant composition of form and colour.
Measuring 10 cm tall, 6.5 cm deep, and 16.5 cm wide, it is in excellent condition with no chips or damage.
A rare and collectible piece of Murano glass art that embodies the style of 1960s Italy with the skill and talent of the Ferro and Lazzarini...

Glass Eye Studio Dichroic Sommerso Sculpture, Seattle Art Glass
Located in Clifton Springs, NY
Vintage tall sculpture or paperweight features swirling structure of dichroic glass and controlled bubbles, encased inside a clear glass layer in sommerso technique. The piece has elongated triangular shape with soft, rounded edges, that directs the eye towards the central design element.
Dichroic glass is a type of glass that displays multiple colors when viewed from different angles. This unique material is created by coating glass with multiple micro-layers of metallic oxides, such as titanium, chromium, and aluminum, that are applied using a vacuum deposition process which allows for precise control over the thickness and composition of each layer. The modern form of dichroic glass was developed in the mid-20th century by NASA scientists for use in space shuttles; it was called “dichroic” for its ability to reflect certain wavelengths of light while allowing others to pass through.
The piece is signed and dated in etching (GES 1996) on the bottom.
Founded in 1978 in Seattle’s famed Pike Place Market, but moved to the historic Ballard neighborhood later on, Glass Eye Studio...
