Description
A striking large hand-blown ruby red art glass bottle in the Empoli style, complete with an elegant clear glass stopper. Standing an impressive 63 cm tall, this sculptural piece makes a stunning statement and is perfect for Mid-Century Modern, contemporary or eclectic interiors.
The bottle features a beautiful optic moulded design, with a subtle diamond pattern visible through the base and delicate vertical optic waves running through the body, creating superb light reflections. The ground and polished pontil mark confirms its hand-blown manufacture.
Although reminiscent of classic Italian Empoli glass from the 1960s and 1970s, no maker’s label or signature is present, so it is offered as Empoli style.
