A Scarcer Amethyst

A striking purple sommerso vase attributed to Flavio Poli for Seguso Vetri d'Arte, c.1960s — a slender architectural form in an amethyst hue seldom encountered in Poli's palette, intensifying beautifully when backlit. The sommerso technique suspends the purple within clear glass to remarkable depth. Sourced in the Veneto.
