The “Fiorentina” toilet set, produced in the 1950s by Huta Stelvia in Empoli, Italy, embodies the core of mid-century modern Italian design. Comprising five opaline glass pieces—two bottles with stoppers (one spherical, one elongated) and three slender, fluted vases—the set is defined by soft, organically rounded forms and balanced proportions. The glass is rendered in an ivory-white, semi-translucent tone with a pearly, iridescent sheen and a smooth, glossy finish. The construction is seamless, with no visible joins or embellishments, and maintains a restrained, minimalist elegance characteristic of the era. Each component reflects skilled glass-blowing traditions, with even walls and a delicate tactility. The set is preserved in very good vintage condition, showing minimal traces of use; on close inspection, minor inclusions or discolorations inherent to hand-blown glass from the period may appear.Each piece in the “Fiorentina” set subtly echoes the understated sophistication of 1950s Italy: tranquil, almost ethereal, and imbued with the quiet confidence found in Empoli’s glassmaking tradition. The milky lightness suggests an object hovering within the room, while the pearlescent glow plays with ambient light like a dawn veil. Unadorned forms speak of an era when everyday objects were refined to the level of applied art—the deliberate balance of line and proportion whispering a pursuit of harmony and gentle poise.The “Fiorentina” set could be displayed on a classic vanity in light wood or placed in a contemporary bedroom with a neutral palette, where the opaline accents would supply a luminous counterpoint to soft textiles and natural textures.
