Vintage Style Sommerso Art Glass Basket Green Blue Handle Bowl Pulled

Sommerso, Italian for 'submerged,' is a glassmaking technique made famous by the Murano glassworks in the mid-20th century, where a colored core is sunk inside a thicker outer layer of glass. This free-form basket bowl is made in that style, with deep emerald green glass cased over cobalt and aqua blue. It would look beautiful on a sideboard, catching the light in a window, or holding a few small treasures.
