A collectible mid century Modern Murano Olive and aqua Sommerso Art Glass Bowl from the 1960s. The bowl (also called an empty pocket) was likely manufactured by Seguso Vetri d’Arte. It has been manufactured in olive and aqua glass with a thick clear glass overlay. This is a classical design of the 60s which displays so well on a table or a desk. A few tiny nibbles on the rim.
Seguso Vetri d’Arte was founded in 1933 by several glass masters among Archimede, Ernesto and Alberto Seguso. In 1934 Flavio Poli became artistic director and in 1937 partner. In the 1950s and 60s the sommerso, valva and siderale designs of Poli became very sucesssful.
