These pieces were blown by popular master glassmaker Michele Onesto from Vetreria Artistica Oball. Vetreria Artistica Oball was founded in 1978 on the island of Murano by Luigi Onesto. Luigi was later joined by his sons, Fabio & Michele Onesto. Oball are best known for their very impressive, multi layered sommerso vases, bottles and other objects.

Sommerso is a technique developed on the Italian island of Murano during the late 1930s. It typically has two layers of glass formed by dipping a ‘gather’ of colored glass into another molten glass and then blowing the gather into the desired shape. The result is glass with contrasting colours commonly encased by a clear layer.
