This Murano Sommerso vase, attributed to Flavio Poli and crafted in Italy during the 1950s, exemplifies mid-century modern style shaped by the Venetian glassmaking tradition. The vase features a soft, teardrop silhouette with a gently flared rim, while vertical ribbing along its surface elongates the profile and directs light through the layered glass. Its body is rendered in warm, transparent amber of medium saturation, seamlessly shifting toward the base into a vivid yellowish-green—a hallmark effect of the Murano Sommerso glass-blowing technique. The piece is free from extraneous ornamentation, instead emphasizing the clarity of material and the hand-blown mastery with which it was formed. The lustrous, glossy finish and subtle optical refractions reinforce the organic dynamism of the design. The vase is preserved in very good condition, with no visible chips or cracks—only minimal signs of age characteristic of vintage glassware.This piece carries with it the voice of Italian mid-century avantgarde—telling a story of light suspended in warm amber. The smooth ribbing offers a subtle nod to technical finesse and a drive for color expression above decorative excess. Its form—uncomplicated yet vibrant—seems to hold inner light, inviting the day inside on its own terms. The colors diffused within the glass recall a masterful balance of craft and subtle play with natural brilliance—the vase doesn't impose itself, instead entering into a gentle conversation with its setting.This vase could be paired with simple, wooden mid-century furnishings to enhance the glass's organic quality. It is well suited for placement on a walnut sideboard or a low, lacquered table. Placing milk glass, ceramics or metal accents with
