Description from the seller
Prestigious Murano Crystal Glass Service – Production from the 1970s
For sale a set of glasses of the highest Venetian craftsmanship, dating from the 1970s. This service stands out for a geometric and imposing design, characterized by a splendid processing of glass with vertical ribs that create unique refraction effects.
The most valuable structural element is the octagonal-cut foot: a solid, geometric base finished to a mirror, which gives the goblet superior stability and a refined aesthetic typical of luxury modernity.
Composition of the Service (18 Pieces):
6 Flutes: H 17.5 cm Sleek silhouette.
6 Water Goblets: H 16 cm Important and spacious.
6 Wine Goblets: H 14.2 cm Perfectly proportioned.
Satin Gold Detail.
The rim of each glass is finished with a band in Satin Gold.
This particular matte finish, handmade, lends the set an elegant, sober, and sophisticated look, making it perfect for the most exclusive tables.
Maintenance and Care Guide
Given the era of the service and the delicacy of the precious metal decoration, it is essential to follow these instructions precisely:
No Detergents: The service must not be washed with any detergent.
Chemical components could attack and dull the gilding. Wash exclusively with warm water.
Attention to the Gilding: The gold is satin and applied by hand. It is mandatory not to scratch with abrasive sponges or scourers. If the surface is scratched with rough materials, the gold comes off.
Drying: Do not rub. Dry the goblets by gently patting with a soft linen or microfiber cloth.
Technical Summary:
Origin: Murano, Italy.
Era: 1970s.
Base: Octagonal-cut foot.
Body: Optical glass with vertical ribs.
Finish: Satin 24K gold.
Style note: A service that unites the geometric rigidity of the octagonal foot with the softness of the satin gold reflection. A piece of Italian artisan history in splendid condition, ready to enrich a collection or an exceptional table.
