1960s Large Tortoiseshell Empoli Plate
Empoli
This incredible hand-blown Tortoiseshell plate / centre piece was made in Empoli in the 1960s. Empoli, the historic town near Florence, has a long heritage of glass blowing dating back to the 13th century but came into fashion in the 1920s through to the 1960s when many pieces became collector's items . The plate has tiny bubbles evidencing the hand-blown nature of the glass and the plate has the mark on the base where the molten glass was cut from the blow pipe. This is an exceptional piece in excellent condition. A rare find which we are unlikely to come across again.
Dimensions: H5cm X W45cm X D45cm
