This mid-century modern Murano catch-all, designed by Flavio Poli for Seguso in the 1960s, exemplifies refined Italian glass artistry of the period. The heavy, solid glass cube is constructed with thick walls and perfectly polished, sharp edges. Its core is a deep, saturated cobalt blue, surrounded by a warm amber-orange layer, both encased in luminous, crystal-clear glass. The highly glossy, reflective surface and precise geometry highlight the minimalist aesthetic typical of 1960s Italian modernism. Functionally versatile, it can serve as an ashtray, catch-all, or stand-alone decorative accent. The proportions (10 × 9 × 9 cm) and weight (1.6 kg) emphasize its substantial presence and quality craftsmanship. Condition: preserved in excellent vintage state, with only minimal, expected light scratches on the base.
In this glass form, the spirit of the 1960s resonates—a time when Murano illuminated the world of design through bold chromatic experiments and the interplay of light. The clarity and intensity of color seem to speak of a quest for harmony between artisanal tradition and the geometric discipline of modernity. The cube—precise and cool, yet radiating inner brilliance—invites contemplation of the way light travels through its submerged layers and reflects off its edges like a kaleidoscope.
