This refined, medium-sized vase from Murano—renowned for its rich glassmaking history—showcases Poli’s mastery in creating captivating visual effects by layering different colors and consistencies of glass.

The wavy and sinuous design of the vase, with its elegant transition from thick green glass in the center to transparent sides, is characteristic of Poli's style. The varying shades of green, reacting dynamically to light, enhance the vase’s allure, making it a captivating centerpiece wherever it is placed. The sommerso technique not only gives depth and complexity to the piece but also ensures that each angle provides a different aesthetic experience, a hallmark of Poli's best works.

Such a piece effortlessly elevates the decor of any space—whether perched on a bookcase, adorning a dining room table, or gracing a living room, it draws attention and admiration. The absence of a brand or signature does not detract from its value; rather, the quality of the glass and the distinctive design securely attribute it to Poli’s expert craftsmanship.

Collecting and displaying such Murano glass artifacts not only brings a touch of elegance and sophistication to your home but also serves as a conversation starter, reflecting a deep appreciation for art and history. This vase, with its undeniable allure and artistic merit, truly epitomizes refined Italian glass craftsmanship of the mid-20th century.
