Sommerso is a method of layering glass where colored layers are encased within clear glass. In this object, you can see a transition from deep red to transparent glass.
Bullicante is a technique in which small air bubbles are trapped within the glass in a regular pattern. These bubbles are created by capturing air between layers of glass using a special mold or tool.
