Sommerso was developed in Murano during the late thirties and was made popular by Seguso d&#039;Arte &amp; Mandruzzato family in the fifties. This process is a popular technique for vases, and is sometimes used for sculptures.</i></p><p><br /></p><p>This looks a lot like some of the imported jewelry from China that is available now.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I could be wrong.</p><p>Wait for other responses.
