Description

This form was popularized by the famous Murano, Italy maker Mandruzzato. This example is in green and clear. The edges are crisp and the crystal is very clear. It is 4.5 inches wide. It is made using the sommerso technique — a colored layer of glass encased in clear glass as visibly indicated in the base. It is a square shape at the mouth that expands into a multi-sided shape cut into faceted planes. This design catches the light thereby appearing differently depending on the setting. Sadly there is a chip on one corner. Priced accordingly. Circa 1960s.
