Murano, Set of 9 Faceted Sommerso Glass Vases, Mandruzzato, Italy, 1970

About the Item

Set of 9 Murano hand-blown vases in range of degree brown, grey, amber and yellow. The vases are made in Murano glass by the Italian artist glassblower Mandruzzato, Italy, 1970s. These exquisite Venetian vases are made with one of the most common techniques, “Sommerso”, which in Italian literally means “submerged”. This technique is used to create several layers of glass giving the illusion of “immersed” colors that lay on top of each other without mixing. Dimensions The largest measures: Height 8.66" (22 cm), the smallest: Height 7,08" (18 cm). Mandruzzato Mandruzzato was founded in 1934 on the island of Murano, Venice, Italy, by Benjamin Mandruzzato. After Benjamin died in 1954, the factory was run by his son Luigi Mandruzzato. In 1965 Luigi was joined by his son, Gianfranco Mandrussato, who took over the running of the company two years later. At first the company made glass lighting fixtures, and then began producing ornaments, vases, ashtrays, and other art glass. Mandruzzato is probably best known for their geometric shaped vases and bowls, inspired by earlier work by Luigi and Gianfranco in collaboration with Pablo Picasso. The firm is now run by Gianfranco's son Allessandro Mandruzzato and became fully trademarked in 2011.
