This Murano glass ashtray/vide poche, attributed to Flavio Poli for Seguso (Italy, 1960s), exemplifies the refined artistry of mid-century modern glassmaking. The diamond-shaped body features precisely cut facets and geometric symmetry. Its core is a vivid, saturated red, enveloped by a subtle blue gradient that dissolves into a thick, transparent glass layer, creating the sophisticated sommerso effect. The highly polished, smooth surface reflects light, accentuating the interplay of colors and giving the piece a jewel-like quality. Crafted from heavy Murano glass with crisp, sharply defined edges, this object serves both decorative and functional purposes—as an ashtray, catchall, or display piece. It is preserved in excellent vintage condition, with no chips or cracks and only minimal, superficial scratches typical of gentle vintage use.
This object channels the spirit of Italian modernism: Murano glass from the 1960s speaks through the skilled hands that embedded vibrant red and deep blue within transparent crystal, bestowing the whole with a distinctive, gem-like brilliance. The diamond form echoes the rhythm and precision of an era that favored pure shape and color over ornament. Each reflection on the facets, each color transition, tells a story of experimental passion and the celebration of light—like a fragment of Mediterranean sunlight captured in
