Large retro turquoise opaline pitcher from stelvia in empoli, italy

Period: ca. 1950-1970 this pitcher with its vibrant turquoise colour and retro-style 3d circles is a real eye-catcher. The blue colour deepens towards the bottom, as does the thickness of the glass. The handle is made of twisted white glass. The sticker is a little creased on the edges; it reads 'romantica' and fabricatto in toscano, italy. This model was made by the stelvia glassworks in empoli, tuscany in the 1950s and was part of their romantica range. Condition: very good. No damage. Small stain on the handle seal. Dimensions: 26.7 cm high, 11 cm diameter at the base.
