A striking example of Italian glassmaking, this large green footed bowl by Vetri Empoli showcases the refined simplicity and vivid colour palette that define the brand’s mid-century aesthetic. With its bold proportions and jewel-like hue, the piece combines functionality and sculptural elegance.

Italian craftsmanship and vibrant colour
Handblown in Empoli, Tuscany—a region celebrated for its centuries-old glassmaking tradition—this bowl exemplifies Vetri Empoli’s mastery of form and tone. The luminous green glass catches the light beautifully, highlighting subtle variations in thickness and curvature that speak to its handcrafted origin.

Decorative and functional versatility
Perfect as a centrepiece, fruit bowl, or decorative accent, this Vetri Empoli design brings a refined pop of colour to both modern and classic interiors. Its clean lines and pedestal base create a timeless silhouette admired by collectors of mid-century Italian glass.
