Drinking set for 6 (7) - Crystal, Glass - Former service

Wine service with a vine decoration – 6 engraved crystal stemware glasses and a glass carafe – mid-20th century Elegant place setting consisting of six engraved crystal stemware glasses and a matching glass carafe, decorated with a delicate motif of grape clusters and vine leaves. The glasses feature a fine, precise engraving typical of decorative crystal from the mid-20th century. Their shaped and lightly fluted stems give them an elegant and balanced silhouette. The clear glass carafe repeats the same engraved vine motif, creating a harmonious and decorative set. Its slender form with a pinched neck facilitates pouring and recalls the carafes used for wine or water in traditional tableware. This type of service was highly appreciated from the 1950s to the 1970s, a period during which grapevine motifs were widely used in European glassware for table services for meals and receptions.
