Vase by Flavio Poli for V. Nason & Co
This black “Diamant” vase by Flavio Poli for V. Nason & Co in the 1970s is a remarkable piece of Italian glass art, both in form and color.
The vase is made of blown glass and has an intricate geometric shape reminiscent of a cut diamond, with flat and raised facets that reflect in the light to create a sparkling effect.
The black color is deep and vibrant, and is achieved by a blending technique of clear and colored glass that gives a translucent, almost luminescent appearance. The body of the vase is supported by a thick glass base, giving an impression of stability and weight.
The combination of intricate form and vibrant color gives this vase a stunning presence that immediately draws the eye. It is both modern and elegant, and is an excellent example of Flavio Poli and Seguso’s expertise and creativity in the production of superior glass art.
