Berger Pastis Glass Carafe - France, 1960s-1970s

This original Berger Pastis advertising carafe hails from the French bistro and cafe culture of the 1960s and 1970s. With its harmoniously rounded shape, characteristic vertical fluting, and striking yellow label with black BERGER lettering, it embodies the distinctive style of French aperitif culture.

The Berger brand was founded in Marseille in 1923 and became one of the most famous producers of Pastis and Anisette. Like many French spirit brands, Berger provided branded carafes and glasses to cafes and bistros free of charge, which became an integral part of the serving ritual on tables.

The carafe served as a "carafe à eau," from which water was poured to dilute the Pastis. The vertical fluting not only gives it its distinctive look but also ensures a secure grip—even when the glass fogs up from cold water or ice cubes.

Today, it is a popular collector's item of French advertising culture and is equally suitable as a water carafe, vase, or decorative object for the kitchen and home bar.
