A tall handled pitcher in glowing tangerine opaline, cased over milk-white so the orange burns warm against a soft white lip and handle. The body swells to a generous amphora curve and draws up to a pinched, tricorn spout; the applied loop handle finishes it with real Italian flourish. Still wearing its original gold foil label — V.B. Opaline Florence, Made in Italy — from the Vetreria Barbieri glassworks at Empoli. A true statement piece, equally striking empty on a mantel or holding a loose armful of branches.
