I will admit it, I am an addict for vintage colored glassware. I can’t get enough of the beautiful array of colors, sizes and shapes. My favorites are mid-century Italian. I love grouping them or giving each one a special place of honor as a key accessory to any room. They are sure to add an elegant, yet whimsical touch to any design style.
Once you discover them, you will want to start building a collection!
My top three favorite places to source them in California are:
Bon Vivant (Palm Springs)
766 N Palm Canyon Dr Palm Springs, CA 92262
(760) 534-3197
Any time I am in Palm Springs, this is a must-do stop for me. The owners, Patrick and James are awesome, and their curated assortment of Blenko glass and other glass from around the world is my favorite.
Adeeni Design Galerie (San Francisco)
664 Post Street
San Francisco, CA 94109
(415) 928-4685
The owner, Claudia Juestel is a fellow interior designer, and has an excellent eye. Among her unique and varied collections of accessories, one can find beautiful vintage glassware.
Modernica (Los Angeles)
