A studio art glass pear paperweight in the style of Murano Sommerso. Sommerso is a form of artistic Murano glass that has layers of contrasting colors which are formed by dipping a gather of colored glass into another molten glass and then blowing the gather into the desired shape; the outermost layer, or casing, is often clear. Sommerso was developed in Murano during the late thirties and was made popular by Seguso d'Arte in the fifties.
