Seguso Vetri d'Arte - Flavio Poli (Murano)

Post by Pip on Sat Jun 06, 2009 6:25 pm

This is a beautiful vase in my opinion - designed by Flavio Poli for the Murano glassworks Seguso Vetri d'Arte (Poli was Artistic Director there from the late 1930s until 1963).

This particular vase was exhibited at the Brussels World Fair in 1958 and still bears it's original fair sticker.

'Collar' vase with incalmo construction, sheared and hotworked to resemble a shirt collar - from a small series of collared vases, designed probably in the 1950s.
