ABOUT PRODUCTID 29655
This large Murano bowl, crafted using the sommerso technique in Italy in the 1960s, is a striking example of Venetian glass artistry. Made from substantial layers of glass and crystal, it features a dominant ruby red core that gradually transitions into a deeper, burgundy hue at the edges, all encased within a thick, transparent outer layer that amplifies its luminous character. The vessel’s organic, freeform silhouette—with softly undulating, asymmetrical curves and a gently waved rim—embodies the essence of mid-century modern design. The surface is smooth and highly reflective both inside and out, with no visible seams, underscoring the precision of its craftsmanship. It remains in excellent condition, free from chips, cracks, or signs of use—the glass retains its pristine depth of color and clarity.
This bowl embodies the narrative of Italian modernism in the 1960s, when Murano’s glassmasters explored the interplay of transparency and color, transforming everyday objects into small works of art. The sommerso technique, born on the island of Murano, imparts the impression of a drop of light suspended within glass—each layer a memory of a Venetian sunset. The red core embraced by a clear envelope evokes the ambiance
