Opaline, Milk Glass, Lattimo, Decanter Set, Italian, 1970's. Mid Century Modern

This opaline glass liqueur set dates from the 1970s, featuring a white milk glass (lattimo) decanter with matching shot glasses decorated with a red floral transfer design. The set was produced during a period when decorative barware and entertaining accessories were popular home accessories, particularly in Europe. The style reflects the mid-century modern aesthetic with its clean lines and bold decorative elements. Such vintage barware sets are highly valued by collectors of mid-century glassware and retro home accessories. The opaline glass technique, which creates the milky white appearance, has historical roots dating back to 19th century European glassmaking but experienced a revival in the 1960s-70s. Collectors appreciate these sets for their nostalgic appeal, distinctive aesthetic, and as representative pieces of a particular era of home entertaining.
