Amazing, Mid- Century Modern, Sommerso Faceted Murano Glass Ashtray, in the style of the famous Italian glassmaker Seguso in the 1970s.
Seguso is a leading name in Murano glass, known for its exceptional craftsmanship and innovative designs.
The term "Sommerso" refers to a technique used in Murano glassmaking, in which several layers of colored glass are fused together, creating a unique effect. In the case of your ashtray, the purple color is likely encased within layers of clear glass, resulting in a distinctive look.
Its exterior surface features multiple flat surfaces or cuts, which provide additional texture and visual interest. This faceting technique is commonly used in modernist design to create geometric and angular shapes. Due to its size, the larger size of a normal ashtray makes it more functional and visually striking. In summary It is a collector's piece in Murano glass that represents the artistic and design sensitivity of the seventies.
This Ashtray is the ideal item to create a perfect moment for your favorite space and for your home.
Our main goal is customer satisfaction, so the packaging and shipping of this item will be done with the utmost care. less
