This Italian ice bucket from the 1970s is crafted from thick-walled pressed glass with pronounced vertical fluting. The transparent body, cool in tone, creates a dynamic interplay of light and shadow across its textured surface. The top rim and swinging handle are made from polished, silver-tone metal with a glossy finish that contrasts the matte quality of the glass. Compact and functional proportions—12 cm in diameter and 14 cm in height—make it convenient for both home entertaining and everyday use. Its solid build, with a flat, weighty base, ensures stability, while the visible rivets attaching the handle add a distinctive barware accent typical of the vintage era. The condition is good: minor scratches on the glass and a touch of patina on the metal may be present, as is characteristic for items of this age. There are no visible chips or cracks.This ice bucket tells the story of 1970s Italy, when modernist design met the practical rituals of daily life. The strong, vertical ribbing of the glass recalls the architectural precision of the era, while the interplay of metal and glass evokes the ambiance of classic bars—spaces where every detail mattered. Its presence on the table is a quiet echo of a time when simplicity and geometric discipline defined good taste. The glass surface, subtly diffusing the light, captures a fragment of an Italian afternoon within its clear volume.It can be paired with other vintage bar accessories—ribbed glass tumblers, a chrome-accented tray, or a heavy glass decanter. The piece works well in mid-century modern interiors as well as eclectic spaces that value historical elements. Placing it on a walnut sideboard alongside classic shakers
