ABOUT PRODUCTID 23849
This set of five Italian tea or espresso glasses from the 1970s exemplifies modernist design, combining transparent crystal glass with a thick, faceted base and matte stainless steel holders. Each glass features a cylindrical shape that subtly tapers towards the base. The stainless steel wraps around the lower portion, forming a single, gently curved handle that contrasts with the vertical facets of the glass. The set reflects the functionality and minimalist aesthetic typical of 1970s Italian design and Bauhaus revival influences. Proportions are balanced, and the surfaces are smooth and refined. The glasses are in good vintage condition, with only minor scratches on the glass and slight wear to the metal holders—no chips or cracks are present.The design of these glasses echoes the spirit of an era when simplicity of materials and clarity of form answered a quest for harmony in everyday objects. The transparency of the glass and the cool matte finish of the steel seem to transform each sip of tea or espresso into a small, modern ritual. The faceted base catches the light, creating a subtle play of reflections on the table—a gentle nod to the 1970s, when design was meant to serve while quietly delighting the senses.This set would complement minimalist, modern, or eclectic interiors—one could pair it with plain ceramics, a light wood tray, or stainless steel table accessories. It is worth combining with a graphite or linen napkin to highlight the contrast of materials and the geometric line of the handles. The glasses work well in a home living room or as part of a collector’s display alongside other Italian design icons.Each glass measures 8 cm in height, 5.5 cm in width and depth. Materials: crystal glass and stainless steel. The set is preserved in good vintage condition, showing minor traces of use characteristic of the 1970s.
