Bring a touch of sophisticated Italian design to your home bar with this stunning set of 6 highball glasses, a true testament to 1970s glass art.
The Design: These glasses are attributed to renowned designer Toni Zuccheri for the VeArt (Venice and Art) glassworks, known for its collaborations with the greatest Murano glass masters. The distinctive feature of this set is the glass surface: textured, almost organic, reminiscent of the consistency of ice or flowing water. This texture is not only visually captivating, but also provides a pleasant and secure grip.
The Functionality: The "Ice Retainer" System The real highlight of this model is its functional design: the deep indentations in the glass (the "bumps" visible near the rim) are not simply decorative. They act as an ice retainer, preventing ice cubes from sliding into your mouth while you sip your drink. An ingenious detail that combines aesthetics and practicality. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
issues arising from misattribution
