Vintage Empoli Green Hobnail Genie Bottle Decanter

This is a vintage Italian Empoli glass genie bottle decanter, characterized by its elongated, tapered conical silhouette and deep forest green color. The body features a highly tactile pressed glass pattern consisting of raised 'hobnail' or 'bullseye' circular motifs set within a grid-like square structural framework. This specific texture is often referred to as a 'cathedral' or 'brick' hobnail design. The piece is crafted from transparent colored glass and tapers significantly from a wide, stable base to a narrow, cylindrical neck topped with a rounded, flared rim. While the original flame or stopper is missing in this view, the bottle exhibits the classic Mid-Century Modern aesthetic popular in Italy during the 1960s and 1970s. The glass appears to be in good vintage condition with no visible cracks or heavy chips in the high-relief texture, though minor shelf wear on the base and surface residue from age are expected. The craftsmanship reflects the mass-produced yet high-quality decorative glass export industry from the Empoli region of Tuscany. It stands approximately 14 to 20 inches tall, a typical height for these sculptural decorative accents.
