Blue glass brandy snifter by Empoli

This blue glass brandy snifter was produced in Empoli, Italy, likely during the mid-20th century (1950s-1970s). The piece features a distinctive blue color with a textured, optic pattern that creates visual interest when light passes through it. The pedestal base and wide bowl shape are characteristic of the modernist glassware produced in this period. Empoli glassware from this era is highly sought after by mid-century modern collectors and interior designers for its vibrant colors and distinctive forms. These decorative pieces represent the Italian glass craftsmanship that flourished in the post-war period and complement both vintage and contemporary interiors.
