Pink and White opalescent goblets
« on: February 15, 2014, 03:27:27 AM »
I have six of these goblets, and I hoping to obtain any information about them such as age, name of glass-maker, or any other information about them would be helpful and greatly appreciated. (See attached photo)
Thanks for any help,
Kathy

Italian for sure. Coeuld be Nason, could be one of the glass makers in Empoli. Nice to have a set of six. And welcome to the glass message board.

Thanks for the reply and information! Do you have any idea when my goblets may have been made and how much they may be worth?
Thanks again!

Probably late seventies. And value is such a subjective thing that we refrain from mentioning it in these
pages.

Hi Kathy,

I've seen numerous very similar items with a Stelvia - Opalina Fiorentina label which would agree with Ivo's suggestion of an Empoli producer. Would be nice to find a matching decanter!

Cheers, Charlene
