This is a stunning example of mid-century Italian artistry: a vintage Empoli cased glass “triple bubble” gourd decanter. Produced in Italy during the 1960s, this architectural piece captures the height of the Space Age aesthetic. The decanter features a vibrant azure blue exterior expertly cased over a clean milk-glass white interior, creating a brilliant, saturated color profile that truly “pops” in natural light. Standing an impressive 19 inches tall, this decanter commands attention. Its iconic triple-lobed silhouette-often referred to as a “Genie Bottle” or “Gourd” shape-is a hallmark of the Empoli region’s glass-blowing tradition. While it is currently presented as a standalone decorative vase or decanter (without a stopper), its sheer scale and “Headless” architectural form make it a highly sought-after piece for Mid-Century Modern and Hollywood Regencycollectors alike. This piece is in excellent vintage condition. The glass remains clear and vibrant with no chips, cracks, or internal mineral staining. The top rim is smooth and free of flea bites.
