Vintage Ashtray in Green Sommerso Murano Glass, Coffee Table Accent, Collectible

About the Item

Murano Glass - Table Decorative - Sculptural Accent Many are the different types of glass created by master makers on the Venetian island of Murano. From air-thin vases to expressive sculptures, also massive objects with deep and vivid hues of colour represent the great skills of glassmakers. The present bowl is a perfect example of how attractive massive Murano glass can be. Made in "Sommerso" glass in shades of green, it has a triangular shape, often seen on Murano bowls of the period. It was originally intended as an ashtray, or just as a decorative piece. It can be dated approximately to the mid 1960s, based on the style and colour of the piece. Unsigned, as most pieces of that era, it shows great craftsmanship, and is preserved in beautiful conditions. No cracks, dents or damages of sort are visible, and just a light patina proves it is actually a 50 years old object. Don't miss it !

Vintage Fluid and Massive Murano Sculpture in "Sommerso" Clear and Green Glass
Located in Milano, IT
Very big and heavy Murano vase in "Sommerso" glass.

In this case, the two colours are green for the core and clear/crystal for the outer layer. The piece is fluid, and is an abstract sculpture in its own right beside being an actual vase. It is preserved in very good original conditions, with minor scratches/hairlines and the expectable patina of a four decades old object...
