Very decorative blue set of ten different size Italian blown and pressed glass bottles. Two pressed genie bottles, a pressed bird design carafe, a pressed square carafe, a pressed fish carafe, two blown cognac glasses as vase and three apothecary or candy jars. Mention Italian glass and probably everyone’s mind immediately leaps to Venice and Murano. But there is another almost equally famous centre of Italian glass making known as Empoli. Empoli glass is generally much simpler and does not have the intricately applied trim or decorations associated with Venetian and Murano pieces. The simple traditional styles of Empoli glass were quickly adapted to the abstract shapes of mid 20th century modernism. It became hugely popular as a decorative home accent, and was exported across the world. Now they are highly sought after by international collectors and look beautiful arranged together. All bottles have their stopper and are slightly different in colour, design, shape and size (height with stopper): Pressed 'wrinkled' glass genie bottle, 59cm high, Ø 11cm (23.2"x4,3") Pressed 'wrinkled' glass genie bottle, 57cm high, Ø 11cm (22.4"x4,3") Light blue pressed glass fish bottle, 40cm high, 10cm wide, 7cm deep (15,8"x3.9"x2.8") Square pressed carafe with ball stopper and bird design 34cm high, 14cm wide, 5cm deep (13.4"x5.5"x1.96") High apothecary or candy jar, blown glass, 34cm high, Ø 13cm (13.4"x5.1") Light blue large cognac glass 33cm high, Ø 21cm ( 13", 8.3") Lower apothecary or candy jar, blown glass, 27cm high, Ø 15cm (10,6"x5,9) Dark blue smaller cognac glass 27cm high, Ø 19 (10.6"x7.5") Square pressed carafe with square stopper 27cm high, 15cm wide, 6cm deep (10.6"x5,9"x3,92.4") Small clear apothecary or candy jar, blown glass, 24cm high, Ø 10cm (9.5"x3.9") Like Murano glass in the 1950s-1960s the great majority of Empoli glass was marked only with relatively generic “Made in Italy” paper or foil label. Over time, many of the original labels have fallen off and the majority of Empoli MCM glass...
