About the Item

We present this Murano glass vase, attributed to the legendary Flavio Poli for Seguso. This piece is truly a testament to the extraordinary skill and innovative techniques that characterized the Murano glassmaking tradition in the 1960s, particularly Poli's creative use of the sommersa technique. The sommersa technique, with its ability to fuse multiple layers of glass without mixing colors, is perfectly exemplified in this vase. The intricate play of deep ruby ​​red that seamlessly transitions into a warm, inviting yellow interior and transparent surround highlights the intricacy and artistry for which Poli was known. The resulting visual effect is a stunning blend of color and texture that captures and reflects light, making the vase luminous and dynamic from every angle. In addition to its technical and aesthetic wonder, the vase's delicate yet substantial form, with a sinuous, almost ethereal shape, embodies the elegance and innovation of mid-20th century Italian design. It harmonizes functional design with exquisite craftsmanship, illustrating why Murano glass pieces from this era are so revered. Even without the mark or signature, the stylistic attributes and quality of the glasswork unmistakably identify the vase as a creation by Flavio Poli for Seguso. The distinguishing elements, such as the bold yet harmonious color choices, the fluid form, and the exceptional clarity and purity of the glass, are all hallmarks of Poli's work. This vase is truly more than just a decorative object; it is a piece of history, a fragment of craftsmanship that has the power to transform its surroundings. Whether placed on a bookshelf, a dining table, or as a centerpiece in a living room, it truly has the ability to inspire admiration and become a talking point. Its timeless beauty ensures that it will remain a beloved and prominent piece in any collection or interior. In conclusion, this Murano vase not only adds aesthetic value to the space it is placed in, but also tells a story of craftsmanship, innovation and artistic excellence. It is a priceless piece that unites the past and present, offering a glimpse of the meticulous craftsmanship that characterizes Murano glassmaking.
