Set of 6 vintage Italian 1970s Brutalist hand-blown Alexandrite or Neodymium crystal long drink glasses by Sergio Asti for Arnolfo di Cambio. The glasses change color depending on the light. They display a purple tint in daylight and change to a blue tint under artificial light. The glasses have a pinched base; this is created by the glassblower manually squeezing the hot, liquid glass base with special tongs before the glass cools. Because this process is entirely manual, the formation of the bumps is slightly different on each individual glass. Not a single glass in the set is exactly identical.
Everything is still in beautiful condition, no chips or anything similar.
