Italian Blue Optic Glass Snifter Goblet

Large Mid-Century Hand Blown Glass Snifter Goblet

Lovely and large mid-century blown glass snifter goblet. Hand-blown in turquoise blue with diamond pillow optics. Hand-tooled ruffled rim. Stem was applied to bowl, foot applied to stem. Rounded ball pontil mark. In great condition with some light outer surface scratches. Circa 1950s, 1960s. Medium band of bottom-wear, expected. Made in Italy.

This lovely snifter looks great with plants or flowers, or could be used as high-steppin’ piano bar tip jar. Makes a visually stunning candleholder with the optics, but never use a candle with metal on base. Old glass cannot stand high temperatures, any metal will get too hot.

The large snifter goblet measures 9.75″ tall, 7″ at widest, and 19″ widest girth.
