This Murano art glass bowl, crafted using the sommerso technique in Italy during the 1960s, features thick glass walls and a rounded silhouette characteristic of mid-century modern design. The high-gloss, polished finish emphasizes the harmonious proportions, while a deep emerald green dominates the color palette, shifting subtly to lighter hues and amber accents near the base. The layered visual effect—where a green core is encased in clear glass—showcases the artisanal mastery of Venetian glassmaking. The surface is perfectly smooth and glossy; the edges are gently rounded, and the flat base ensures stability. There are no visible chips, cracks, or restoration marks. Condition: very good, with no signs of wear.This bowl captures the spirit of 1960s Italy: its emerald depths appear to hold light in motion, and the subtle color transitions evoke the play of the Venetian lagoon under the sun. The purity of form and interplay of light and shadow endow the object with an understated refinement, speaking in the voice of its era—a time when applied arts embraced both color experimentation and the precision of handcraft. Though small in scale, the bowl becomes a miniature stage for light, water, and color.It can be displayed on a console, shelf, or low table in the living room, where the glass will catch daylight or reflect the glow of evening lamps. It pairs well with mid-century modern interiors, especially when combined with other glass objects or ceramics to enhance a curated, collectible atmosphere. Pairing with warm-toned wood, marble, or metal surfaces will further highlight the depth and luster of the glass.Dimensions: height 9.2 cm, diameter 4.4 cm. Material: art glass, sommerso technique.
