7" H x 2.25" diameter
This is a striking set of six sculptural lucite tumblers dating to the 1970s and created in the sleek modernist style associated with Italian designer Alessandro Albrizzi. Each piece is cast from solid clear acrylic and shaped with an elongated internal teardrop form that appears suspended within the cylinder. The result is a clean, architectural silhouette that plays beautifully with light and creates a strong visual presence on a bar cart or drinks cabinet.
Lucite barware became a hallmark of sophisticated entertaining during the 1970s and 1980s. It offered the clarity of glass with a lighter weight and greater durability, making it ideal for indoor and outdoor use. These tumblers are a perfect example of that era's interest in futuristic materials and sculptural simplicity. They feel crisp, modern, and elegant while still reading as vintage. The seven inch height gives them a refined, elongated profile that works well for cocktails, sparkling water, and mixed drinks.
This set is an excellent choice for anyone who appreciates mid century and postmodern design, Italian modernism, or the unique clarity and sculptural quality of vintage lucite. They bring a polished and stylish look to any bar setup.
Condition: The set is in good vintage condition with visible small surface scratches throughout, which are typical for lucite pieces from this period. The bases show micro scuffing from use and storage. All six tumblers remain clear with no clouding or fogging, and the sculptural interior forms are crisp and defined. There are no cracks or structural concerns. They display beautifully and retain the clarity and presence expected from high quality 1970s acrylic barware.
