About the Item
Naturalia consists of one-off pieces in a variety of colors, expressing Michela Cattai’s fascination with nature in all of its unpredictable forms and manifestations. Each piece was crafted in Murano, with the traditional venetian blown glass technique, shaped freehand, and finished with a silky texture of warm monochrome tones.
Signed, dated, and numbered 2433 on base.
A Milan-based glass artist, Michela Cattai is a graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice, and has been the Art Director of Venini until 2023. Today, she works independently. Cattai’s glass vessels are crafted by some of Murano’s finest glassmakers—her pieces pay homage to the Golden Age of Venetian glass, while keyed-in on artistic innovation in the field. Her work is a testimony to the way in which the finest art glass practiced for centuries in Murano can be reinterpreted to express the zeitgeist.
She has participated in solo and group exhibitions at the Chamber of Deputies in the Sala del Cenacolo, Rome and the Italian Cultural Institute of Tokyo, and her work is included in the collections of the Stiftung Museum Kunst Palast of Düsseldorf, the Europeana of DDB, the Murano Glass Museum, the Scuola Grande di San Giovanni Evangelista in Venice, and the Italian Embassy’s permanent collection of modern art in Tokyo, among others.

Murano Neodymium Sommerso Glass Shell, Flavio Poli for Seguso, Italy, 1960s
By Seguso Vetri d
Arte, Flavio Poli
Located in Glasgow, GB
A collectible Murano glass conch shell, attributed to the work of Flavio Poli for Seguso Vetri d'Arte, crafted in Italy during the 1960s. This decorative shell exemplifies Poli’s mastery of the sommerso technique—a hallmark of mid-century Murano glass, where translucent layers of coloured glass are submerged within one another to create rich tonal depth.
Shaped as a spiral conch shell, the piece features rare neodymium-infused sommerso glass. Its purple base subtly shifts to blue under different lighting conditions—a distinctive property of neodymium—and is balanced by a soft pink interior at the shell’s opening. This optical variation makes it a dynamic object under natural and artificial light, characteristic of collectible Murano neodymium...
