Know before you buy
While the recycled glass is durable, we recommend hand-washing these pieces to preserve the integrity of the hand-blown finish and prevent potential clouding over time.
No, each glass is unique. Because they are handcrafted, you should expect slight variations in shape, thickness, and texture, which is part of their artisanal charm.
These glasses hold 450ml, or 15oz, when filled to the very rim. For a comfortable pour that allows the wine to breathe, we recommend filling them to about 6–8oz.
Yes, they are crafted from recycled glass, which is typically thicker and more robust than mass-produced, delicate crystal stemware. They are well-suited for regular use, though they should still be handled with the care expected of any glassware.
This certification ensures that the artisans in Eswatini who hand-blow these glasses are paid fair wages, work in safe conditions, and are supported by ethical business practices.
