AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Fabulous set consisting of 6 original glasses by Carlo Moretti, complete with 2 bottles of Spritz produced by La gioiosa. The glass is pure Venetian crystal, as only Carlo Moretti could produce. This antique formula, discovered in Murano around 1450, was jealously kept secret by the master glassmakers of the island; with its brilliance and lightness, it lends the objects a delicate sensation of pleasure to the touch. The ornament has been personally designed by Carlo Moretti, especially the base, which is cut by Murano glass masters.
They are of exquisite workmanship thanks to the talented hand of Carlo Moretti. Finally the prestige of the name of Carlo Moretti engraved on every piece as guarantee that it is an original.
height: 8 cm - width: 6 cm
Spritz La Gioiosa
Flavored wine-based cocktail
And if the precise recipe does not exist, the opposite of its origins cannot be said; the most popular hypothesis is that the word spritz derives from the German spritzen, meaning to spray. In what sense? In the 19th century, soldiers, as well as various traders, diplomats, and workers of the Habsburg empire stationed in Veneto, asked to spray some water into the wines because they were not used to their high alcohol content.
Tasting notes: It has an attractive orange color, a good balance between bitterness and sweetness, and a pleasant aromatic persistence.
PAIRING: Excellent as an aperitif, but also suitable to be enjoyed at any time of the day; it can accompany appetizers and snacks.
Serving temperature 8-10°C
Seller's Story
I am a manager at the most important glassworks in Italy. I spent most of my weekends at my father's glassworks when I was a child. I have extensive experience in glass and a good worldwide reputation for Murano Glass. Over the past 10 years, I have been collecting chandeliers and vases in Murano; I am more of a lover than a collector. In my view, some pieces are more 'objet du désir' than vases or sculptures. I would be happy to sell some of my collection with your prestigious support. Many thanks for your response.
