Wonderful Mid-Century collection of three decorative bowls or ashtrays in sommerso Murano mouth blown black, orange and white glass with gold details. This incredibly charming and unique set was produced in Murano, Italy during the 1970s. In fabulous condition, with no chips or cracks. The set includes 3 mouth-blown sommerso bowls and a pestle in black bullicante glass with clear bubbles inside. The Sommerso glass is obtained by creating multiple layers of glass, within a single object. This technique gives the illusion of "dipped" glasses that overlap without mixing. The glasses are made of three different layers, a deep glossy black external one, a white glass layer in the middle and a wonderful orange internal layer enhance with gold leaf details. The sinuous lines of these mouth-blown glasses and the outstanding quality make them extremely charming and unique. The rounded edges together with the "sommerso" technique allow a spectacular light reflection. A fantastic and unique decorative set, perfect to complement a Mid-Century Modern project.
