Eye-catching and unique, the Moon Glass Cake Stand is created with a traditional Italian technique: artisans handpress metallic gold into each piece, and then they polish the gold for a textured effect with beautiful patina. With its generous size and brilliant color, this stand makes a striking statement. Since 1983, Vietri has specialized exclusively in Italian handcrafted ceramics, stainless and pewter flatware, mouth blown glassware, lamps, urns and planters. Families of artisans with 3 or 4 generations of history create these special pieces using centuries-old techniques. The subtle color from a paintbrush and the curving stroke of the artist's hand are never repeated in quite the same way, making each piece truly unique.
