Description :

The Elegant Vintage Amberina Glass Ensemble consists of four exquisite pieces, each showcasing the distinctive gradient color transition from deep red to warm amber. This collection includes a stemmed goblet with an intricate pattern and flared base, a bulbous vase with ruffled edges and an embossed design, a tall and slender candlestick holder with a simple yet elegant form, and a pitcher with an ornate handle and etched floral patterns, featuring a flared spout for pouring. These items are made of glass, specifically Amberina glass, which is known for its unique coloration achieved through the use of heat-sensitive chemicals and reheating processes.

Amberina glass has a rich historical background, first patented in 1883 by the New England Glass Company. It gained popularity in the late 19th century due to its striking color gradient, which was created by adding gold chloride to clear glass and then reheating it.
