About the Item

Murano Sommerso Ashtray from the 1960s This Murano ashtray features an organic, asymmetrical shape, with a circular base and a wraparound design that rises at one end to create a functional resting place. The design is distinguished by the Sommerso technique, which encapsulates layers of colored glass. The piece features a vibrant fuchsia or magenta core, submerged within a layer of clear glass, and is finished with an intense cobalt blue exterior. This color contrast is the main characteristic, offering a three-dimensional visual effect and great depth. The ashtray has a smooth, polished finish across its entire surface, accentuating the clarity and thickness of the glass, subtly reflecting light at different levels. It shows some wear from age.
