ABOUT PRODUCTID 1885
The Mandruzatto centerpiece, crafted in Murano around 1950, exemplifies Italian mass-colored, layered crystal glass shaped using the sommerso technique attributed to Flavio Poli. Measuring 27 × 20 × 15 cm, the bowl echoes the sculptural tendencies of mid-century modernism—its organic, flowing form recalls a blooming flower or an abstract star, with six pronounced upward arms and two extended handles ending in rounded tips. Dominant hues of amber, olive green, and subtle blue blend in a gradient effect, highlighted by a high-gloss, mirror-like finish. The surface is smooth, with a flat, polished base, while the dynamic lines and bold proportions underline the characteristic Murano style of the 1950s. The bowl is preserved in excellent condition, showing no signs of wear or damage. This piece channels the voice of postwar Murano, a time when art glass became a declaration of modernity and creative daring. Its undulating arms seem to capture the light, allowing colors to shift and play with every change of perspective and daylight. It tells the story of an era when craftsmanship and artistry converged—each reflection and subtle shade bearing witness to innovation and the experimental spirit of Flavio Poli's workshop. The centerpiece may be displayed as the focal point on a living room table, where its form and coloration will naturally draw attention—either solo or alongside neutral, matte surfaces that emphasize its gloss. It pairs elegantly with warm-toned wood or marble, and with other mid-century glass objects, such as Murano vases or minimalist ceramics. Whether in a collector's interior, a retro-inspired space, or a modern lounge, it sets the scene for light and color, serving both
