Vintage Toscany Italy Hand Blown Aqua Blue Art Glass Footed Bowl Compote 6"

Beautiful vintage Toscany hand-blown Italian art glass footed bowl / compote, dating approximately to the 1960s–1970s.  This striking piece is hand blown in luminous aqua / turquoise blue glass with a thick, substantial construction. The bowl features a vertically lobed optic design that creates beautiful waves of color through the glass, along with a dramatic scalloped ruffled rim and thick pedestal foot.  The original black and gold foil label remains attached and reads “HAND BLOWN / toscany / MADE IN ITALY.”  Toscany-labeled glass is associated with Italian decorative glass from the Empoli region, although the specific glassworks responsible for this piece is unknown. It is therefore described as likely Empoli rather than attributed to a particular factory.  A beautiful piece of vintage Italian art glass for use as a small centerpiece, candy or trinket bowl, compote, or display piece.
