Murano Sommerso Italian Mid Century Modern Blue Ashtray, 1960s

Murano Sommerso blue ashtray.

A Murano Sommerso ashtray would be an ashtray made using the Murano Sommerso glassmaking technique. Murano Sommerso is a glassmaking technique that originated on the Venetian island of Murano in the mid-20th century. The technique involves layering different colors of glass, one on top of the other, and then shaping the glass into the desired form. The result is a unique and beautiful object that appears to have colored layers submerged beneath the surface.

A Murano Sommerso ashtray would likely be a small, decorative ashtray made using this technique. It could feature one or more layers of glass in different colors, such as blue, green, or red, and may also have decorative patterns or raised relief work. Murano Sommerso ashtrays are highly prized by collectors and art enthusiasts due to their beauty and the skill required to make them.
