Italian Ball Cocktail Glasses | Space Age · Set of 2

Item Type: Pre-Loved

A cocktail glass with the confidence of the Space Age — the spherical bowl sits on a short stem and says something without raising its voice.

Clear glass with a spherical bowl form — full, rounded, with an opening calibrated for a proper pour. The silhouette is immediately recognisable as part of the Space Age design moment of late 1960s and 70s Italy: circular, sculptural, functional. The glass has visual impact that a standard tumbler does not. Sold as a set of 2.

The Space Age design movement reached Italian industrial production in the late 1960s, influencing everything from furniture to glassware. Italian glass manufacturers of the 1970s produced spherical and orbital forms that drew on the optimism and visual boldness of the era. These ball glasses are a direct product of that moment — made for use at the table, but carrying the aesthetic vocabulary of a specific and confident decade.
