Violet Alchemy — Italian Alexandrite Glass & Pewter Bar Ensemble
CHF 350
A sculptural Italian bar ensemble crafted from mouth‑blown alexandrite glass and solid Peltro 95%. The glass carries its signature alchemical shift — moving from cool violet to soft blue depending on the light — a natural optical effect that gives the set depth, elegance, and a touch of theatre.
The pewter elements, with their oval cut‑outs and satin finish, embody the modernist Italian design language of the late 1970s to 1980s. Confident, architectural, and tactile, this set balances functionality with strong visual presence. Stamped Made in Italy, it stands as both a collectible object and a striking bar accessory.
