ABOUT PRODUCTID 31985
This set of six espresso cups with matching saucers, produced by Bormioli Vitrosax in Italy during the 1970s, represents the minimalist, geometric design typical of mid-century modern aesthetics. Each piece is crafted from pressed glass, colored throughout in a warm, amber-orange hue with medium saturation. The smooth, high-gloss finish enhances the uniform color, while the proportions of the cups (6 cm in height and diameter) and saucers (11.5 cm in diameter) are carefully balanced. The handles are small, rounded, and seamlessly integrated into the cup bodies, while the saucers are simple, round, and perfectly scaled to match. The set is preserved in very good condition, showing no signs of wear, chips, or restoration. These cups echo the voice of Italian design from the 1970s: the purity of form and vibrant color evoke the atmosphere of espresso enjoyed in modernist cafés of Milan or Rome. The amber glass catches the light like a morning sunbeam on a marble countertop, and the clean lines and geometric harmony speak to a belief in function and daily beauty—a time when even home coffee was a ritual imbued with a touch of Italian ease. The set can be used in both classic retro arrangements and minimalist interiors with a vintage accent. It pairs well with dark walnut or light oak coffee tables, surrounded by 1970s ceramics or matte metal trays. It may be combined with natural-textured textiles—such as linen tablecloths or felt placemats—and other glass accents in muted tones, creating a cohesive, collectible composition on the home table. The listed price refers to the complete set of six cups and six saucers.
