Title: Amber Bark Finish jug and Glasses ID = Rocco Bormioli "Islanda"
Post by: vanmann on October 30, 2012, 07:30:45 PM

I am guessing that these bark finish jug and glasses are Italian 1970s. Any ideas yes or no appreciated Thanks John

A bit later but yes, basically correct.  I believe these are Luigi Bormioli.

Excellent info, thanks Gab. I have a set of these which I identified as Bormioli from Ivo's glass fact file A-Z book but I didn't have the designer info or series name.
