the martini pitcher, designed by orfeo quagliata, is truly stunning, composed of handmade clear glass with a clean, modern shape and striped stirrer. this pitcher was part of a series of glassware mentioned in metropolitan home's 2004 "design 100", and with its clean lines and fascinating use of color, it's easy to see why. the clear container is large enough to hold several servings of drinks and is ideal when paired with orfeo's translucent striped or opaque striped stirrer, also sold here. due to the handmade nature of orfeo glass, no two pieces will look exactly alike; slight variations in color may occur.
orfeo is the son of renowned glass artist narcissus quagliata and grew up on an artist commune in san francisco. after spending time in austria with his grandmother herta jalkotzy, an award winning jewelry designer in the wiener werkstaette, orfeo apprenticed for 2 years in spain with josef fernandez-castrillo before moving to milan to work with the famed grimaldi watch family. now, quagliata lives and works in mexico city where he produces exceptional glass jewelry and objects.
