The visual magic of this double-layered cruet set is achieved with Old World technique—the glass is mouth blown to create a unique double bubble. The outer six-ounce layer holds olive oil, while the inner two-ounce layer contains the dark, contrasting core of balsamic or red vinegar. Both are sealed with durable, synthetic stoppers. The cruet’s sleek black tray provides a space to display it.
