Description :

Elegant vintage Murano-style art glass vase featuring a dramatic sommerso (cased glass) design with a rich cobalt blue base that gradually transitions to clear crystal. The sculptural flared rim forms six petal-like points, creating a striking organic silhouette. A beautiful example of Mid-Century Modern Italian-inspired art glass that displays wonderfully with or without flowers.

Historical Note/Fun Fact
Sommerso—Italian for "submerged"—is a Murano glassmaking technique developed during the 1930s in which layers of colored glass are encased within clear crystal. The process creates dramatic depth and vibrant color transitions, making these sculptural pieces highly collectible among Mid-Century Modern and art glass enthusiasts.
