⌛History Behind The Piece⌛ Borgonovo, established in 1950 in Italy’s Lombardy region, gained a reputation for crafting practical yet stylish household glassware. By the late 1970s and into the 1980s, the company embraced modern materials by pairing moulded glass bodies with durable polypropylene lids, catering to the era’s preference for streamlined, easy-care kitchen essentials. This jar reflects that transitional design moment—bridging mid-century elegance with contemporary practicality.
