A striking mid century Empoli glass lantern decanter, crafted in richly coloured amber glass with a distinctive architectural silhouette.

The body is formed in a faceted, tapering lantern shape, rising to a domed shoulder and original stopper, all balanced on an elegant, moulded pedestal base.

The glass displays a warm, honeyed amber tone, characteristic of Empoli production, catching the light beautifully across its textured and panelled surfaces.

The stopper complements the form with a matching hue and clean, sculptural profile, completing the overall design.

Produced in Italy during the mid 20th century, pieces of this style are closely associated with Empoli glassworks, known for bold forms and vibrant colourways.

This example reflects that tradition, combining functionality with a strong decorative presence.
