Sommerso (lit. "submerged" in Italian), or "sunken glasses", is a form of artistic Murano glass that has layers of contrasting colors (typically two), which are formed by dipping the object in molten glass; the outermost layer, or casing, is often clear. Sommerso was developed in Murano during the late thirties and was made popular by Seguso d'Arte in the fifties. This process is a popular technique for vases, and is sometimes used for sculptures.This is one of the absolute wonderful examples of the contessa style Di Sommerso it is flawless and quite rare with a gold interior and irradecent blue overtones and is the trophy piece in anybody's owl collection this sculpture was purchased in Murano in the late 50's when my grandmother.
