Description from the seller
Cristalleria Etruria – Bottle / carafe with a glass-artistic and crystal stopper – Italy, 1960s–70s
⸻
Description
Refined decorative bottle with stopper, made of mouth-blown artistic glass, Italian production by Cristalleria Etruria, a historic Tuscan manufactory.
The object features a globe-shaped body in aqua-green glass, blown and manually shaped, supported by a sculptural leg with red decorative inclusions, obtained through hot-work. The circular base is made of mottled yellow glass, with a textural effect and internal movement typical of Italian artistic productions of the period.
The original stopper, finely shaped, is made of blue crystal (or colorless crystal glass), characterized by concentric ridges that enhance brilliance and light refraction.
The whole composition reflects Italian Mid-Century Modern style, with strong references to the artistic design of the 1960s–early 1970s, a period of great chromatic and formal experimentation in Italian glassworks.
On the bottom there is the original label “Cristalleria Etruria,” confirming authenticity and origin.
