Description from the seller

Pear-shaped Ice Bucket – Aluminum – "Made in Italy" – 1960s/70s

Iconic and rare large pear-shaped ice bucket, an authentic example of Italian design from the late 1960s / early 1970s. This piece represents a classic accessory for a bar furnished in Hollywood Regency and Mid-Century Modern styles.

The external body is entirely made of brushed satin aluminum, topped by a textured, raised stem. The interior retains its original white plastic thermal insert for ice cube insulation. On the exterior bottom, there is the metal-embossed mark "Made in Italy," guaranteeing the piece’s origin and authenticity.

A striking piece of mid-century modern design, perfect for collectors or to enhance a vintage cocktail corner.

Height: 28 cm
Maximum diameter: 20 cm
Weight: 600 g
Estimated period: 1965-1975
Country of origin: Italy ("Made in Italy" mark engraved under the base)

Good vintage condition, consistent with age and use.
The aluminum is in good condition. No major dents, cracks, or deformities.
The surface shows light patina and minor imperfections that give the piece a beautiful authentic character.
The inner white plastic tub is in impeccable condition, clean, without cracks or wear stains, a very rare feature for objects of this era.
The upper metallic stem shows slight play (slightly movable) due to time, but is firmly secured in its seat.

Careful packaging and trackable shipping.
