Measurements: 49 x 16 x 16 cm; 39 x 16 x 16 x 16 cm.
The elegant vessels, bottles and sculptures of Onesto as the Chinese couple shown here have been made using a technique called sommerso, which incorporates layers of different colors. The figures, in blown Murano glass, combine clear, purple and ruby blue glass.
