Know before you buy
While it is designed as a vessel for beverages, you should avoid pouring boiling liquids directly into the glass. We recommend letting your hot drinks cool slightly before serving to protect the integrity of the handmade glass.
Those bubbles are a hallmark of the artisanal glassblowing process. They are intentional characteristics of Helle Mardahl’s handmade technique and confirm that each piece is a unique, one-of-a-kind creation.
No, The Cup Mega is not dishwasher safe. To preserve the glass and its unique finish, please hand wash it gently using lukewarm water and a mild detergent.
Because every piece is handmade, there will be subtle variations in shape, color, and texture. You can expect your cup to be distinct and individual, which is part of its artistic appeal.
The cup measures 5.5 inches in height with a diameter of 2 inches. Its slender, artful profile makes it as suitable for display as it is for holding your favorite beverage.
