THIS WILL BE SHIPPED PRIORITY INSURED AND REQUIRE SIGNATURE CONFIRMATION UPON RECEIPT Vintage Venetian Murano Enameled Green Glass Demitasse Cup & Saucer Set - NEW The Golden Era of Tre Fuochi: The specific style of decoration on your set is called "Tre Fuochi" (Three Fires). While the heavy enamel technique has historic roots, this highly stylized, heavily gilded design format exploded in popularity as luxury souvenirs for tourists visiting Venice during the postwar boom of the 1950s and 1960s . Production of this exact aesthetic peaked globally in the 1960s . The Paper Label Signifier: The wavy-edged, gold paper stock "Made in Italy" label on the bottom was standard issue for Italian glass export houses and consortiums during the late 1950s and 1960s . In 1980, Murano factories transitioned to newer, serialized official trademark decals to combat counterfeits, which look entirely different from this mid-century paper sticker. Condition: New.
