About the Item
Green glass vase, mid-century art glass, textured Italian-style vase, and sculptural avocado glass décor are some of the top search terms collectors use when hunting for standout tabletop pieces — and this dramatic vessel is exactly the kind of object that rises to the top of a curated interior. Richly pigmented in a vibrant avocado-green, this vase features a beautifully crumpled, lava-like texture with fluid, organic contours reminiscent of Empoli Italian art glass and 1960s Scandinavian studio work.
Its silhouette is exceptional: a wide, flared mouth that tapers into a cinched waist and expands again into a sculptural base. The dimensional surface refracts light with incredible depth, giving the piece a gemstone-like glow. This is the type of vase designers love — bold, architectural, and effortlessly chic, whether styled alone or filled with florals.
Although unsigned (as many mid-century European pressed and blown art-glass pieces are), its character is strongly aligned with mid-century Italian production, particularly makers in the Empoli region known for richly colored, textural green glass.
Provenance:
Sourced from a private collection in the American Southwest, curated by a long-time collector of European and mid-century modern art glass. The previous owner acquired many of their pieces during travels through Italy and Northern Europe in the 1970s.
Styling Ideas
Display on a travertine console or walnut sideboard for a quintessential mid-century modern look
Pair with other green glass pieces for a tonal, collected, design-magazine-ready vignette
Style solo on open shelving — its sculptural silhouette stands beautifully on its own
Use with dramatic branches (eucalyptus, olive, quince) or a monochromatic floral arrangement for a refined designer moment
Combine with brass, rattan, or stone accessories to enhance the organic textural contrast

Vintage Green Glass Tumblers – Set of Five Textured Mid-Century Barware
Located in Oklahoma City, OK
Vintage green glassware, mid-century barware, textured glass tumblers, and retro drinking glasses lead the search when collectors look for sculptural, statement tabletop pieces — and this striking set of five delivers all of that and more. Crafted in a richly pigmented olive-green hue, these geometric, footed tumblers feature a bold stacked-cube relief pattern that captures and refracts light beautifully, making them standout additions to any curated bar cart or dining tableau.
These glasses feel luxuriously substantial in hand, with a pedestal base that elevates them (literally and stylistically). The architectural texture gives them a high-design presence — reminiscent of Italian modernist glass, Mid-Century Scandinavian design, and chic Hollywood Regency barware.
Perfect for serving cocktails, iced tea, sparkling water, spritzes, or simply styling on open shelving, these tumblers instantly add a polished, collected, “old-money bar” vibe to any interior.
