Description from the seller
Beautiful set of 12 grey glass bowls made by IVV in Italy.
The bowls are made of decorated glass with an irregular surface, particularly brilliant and very pleasant to the touch. They feature a very classic and elegant design, they are suitable for any type of dish, adding a touch of real sophistication.
IVV is one of the leading—and very few—glassworks that were born in Italy, grew there, and still produce in the Bel Paese. The company, in fact, was founded in 1952 in San Giovanni Valdarno, in the heart of Tuscany, by a group of master glassmakers, whose aim has always been to guarantee a product whose artisanal nature combines the tradition and culture of their land with creative and constant innovation, inspiring a unique, authentic, up-to-date and Italian style, and mixing textures and different optical effects with the constant and indispensable artisanal quality.
Transparency, brilliance and sonority are the terms that characterize IVV's high-quality products. This result is achieved by choosing only selected, refined raw materials, which are worked at very high temperatures to eliminate all impurities.
With iconic products that anticipated trends and fashions: from the 1950s to the 1990s, thanks to the industrial scale given to its production activity, it was a precursor in making blown glass products for the table, for the buffet, and for home furnishings accessible to a wider market, at that time accessible only to a few, as an expression of pure elite craftsmanship.
This path was pursued without ever renouncing either expressing its own creativity, drawing on the heritage represented by its master glassmakers, or quality, still today the flagship of IVV products: from the transparency and brilliance of its glass, to the color imparted throughout the mass of the bowls (so important not only for users' health but also for maintenance considerations in hotels and restaurants).
Excellent condition, measurements 7x10 cm. Some bowls still have the IVV sticker attached.
Seller's Story
My name is Riccardo. I recently graduated in Art History from the University of Florence and I am passionate about porcelain. From tableware to artistic vases, from figurines to tea and coffee sets, I am fascinated by the mastery and creativity of great artisans and designers who manage to shape this fragile material, transforming a rough mass into masterpieces with a story to tell. During my years at university I began to become interested in the history of nineteenth- and twentieth-century tableware; today, every day, I deal with prestigious porcelain pieces that always have something to say to me and to those who purchase them. I love that every day I can discover more about the objects I find while traveling around Italy, always learning something new. I always try to convey to my clients this passion I have for the objects I sell, certain that each of them has a story to tell: that of the creator, that of the one who preserved it, and that of the person who will give it a new life.
