Description from the seller

Pair of Vintage Vases "Opaline Florence" – Encased Milky-Opal Glass – Italy, 1970s

Splendid set consisting of two hand-blown opal glass vases, produced in Italy in the 1970s for the famous line "Opaline Florence" (often attributed to the design of Carlo Moretti or to prestigious Empoli manufactories).
The vases feature the iconic Space Age / Pop Art design, characterized by a base of milky white glass that is “encased,” decorated with bold abstract brushstrokes and spirals in deep turquoise, vibrant orange, and earth brown. The artisanal craftsmanship makes each piece unique in color distribution.
