Exquisite Artisan Hand-Blown Cobalt Blue "Bullicante" Martini Glasses – A Pair ​The Art of the Pour ​Elevate your home bar with this striking pair of hand-blown martini glasses, where mid-century aesthetic meets high-level studio craftsmanship. These aren’t just vessels; they are sculptural conversation pieces designed for the serious cocktail enthusiast who appreciates the weight and soul of handmade glass. Era & Origin ​Circa: 1970s – 1980s ​Style: Late 20th Century Studio Glass ​Technique: Bullicante (Controlled Bubble) ​These pieces are quintessential examples of the Studio Glass Movement, where independent artists focused on bold, geometric forms and the visible markers of the hand-blown process. Masterful Craftsmanship & Design ​The focal point of each glass is a magnificent, solid glass sphere base in a vibrant, electric Cobalt Blue. Encased within the deep blue orb is a breathtaking "Bullicante" pattern—perfectly suspended, controlled air bubbles that capture and refract light with every movement. ​Hand-Blown Authenticity: Each glass features a distinct, rough-snapped pontil mark on the underside of the base. This "scar" is the thumbprint of the glassblower, proving these were individually crafted on a punty rod rather than mass-produced in a mold ​The Silhouette: A crystal-clear, oversized conical bowl sits atop the weighted blue sphere, providing a sophisticated and stable silhouette that feels substantial and balanced in the hand. ​Unique Character: Because these are artisanal pieces, you will find those slight, charming variations in bubble placement and form that ensure no two glasses are exactly alike. These glasses are in excellent vintage condition. There are no chips, cracks, or clouding to the bowls. The bases show the authentic, rugged texture of the hand-blown process. ​Note to Collector: Due to the artisan nature and the weighted "ball" bases, these pieces have a wonderful heft to them. They will be meticulously double-wrapped and "over-packed" to ensure they arrive at your door in the same pristine condition they left my shop. Measures 5 in H x 4 in  w Condition: Used.
