A set of four gorgeous lilac Alexandrite drinking glasses plus the matching ice bucket with original tongs. This vintage & highly collectible purple Neodymium glass set has a stunning chrome overlay. It shows a spectacularly elegant asymmetrical design. It is incredibly rare to find a set complete with its bucket and tongs. The lavender-colored glass mimics the rare and color-changing gemstone Alexandrite, which shifts between shades of purple and blue depending on lighting, particularly fluorescent lighting. This unique barware set is most likely manufactured in Italy in the early 1970s or late 1960s. It can serve as both functional and decorative items, adding a touch of mid-century or sophisticated charm to bar settings or dining tables. The glass is pretty heavy and has a beautiful bubble in its base, as typically seen in hand or mouth-blown art glass.
