Have you ever spotted a custard genie bottle in the wild?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a vintage Empoli genie bottle decanter made of opaque glass in a rare, creamy custard color. The teardrop body is covered in raised fruit: a big cluster of grapes, a pear, an apple, leaves and curling vines, with a stippled background running up the slender neck. It's topped with its original tall spire stopper covered in hobnail bumps. Empoli genie bottles were made in Tuscany, Italy, mostly in the 1960s and 1970s. Most turn up in green, amber, blue or amethyst, so this soft custard shade is a real find.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA note from me: I'm a true Empoli lover. Snifters, genie bottles and all the decorative pieces make me giddy when I find them, and this is the nicest one I have ever come across. It's hard to let it go, but it's time for it to make another collector just as happy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Opaque glass in a cream custard color\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaker: Empoli, Italy (unmarked)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEra: Mid-century, about 1960s to 1970s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStyle: Genie bottle decanter with original hobnail spire stopper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesign: Embossed grapes, pear, apple, leaves and vines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: About 18.75\" tall with stopper x 4\" wide at the base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: Excellent vintage condition.
