In the second half of the 1990s, with expert advice provided by the wine specialist Veronelli, Achille revised certain functional details of this new project, originally designed together with his brother Pier Giacomo in 1965 on the occasion of the exhibition La Casa Abitata in Florence. References to archetypal forms are particularly apparent in the White wine glass and the Red wine glass that synthesise two classic shapes from the vast and multi-faceted history of the drinking glass: one draws on the archetypal Bordeaux wine glass (a vessel with a tapering rim well suited to most white wines, but also many reds) and he other on the archetypal Burgundian glass for Burgundy wines (a tasting glass ideal for fine wines). The Carafe with handle, the Decanter and the Tasting, Cognac, Whisky and Brandy glasses were designed by Achille alone, albeitwith the consultancy of Veronelli, between 1999 and 2001.
