Product Description

This handmade creation is offered in partnership with NOVICA, in association with National Geographic.

Goblets are dishwasher safe, top rack recommended
The infinite blue of sky and sea grace a crystalline ambience of blown glass
Inspired by Acapulco's beaches, Javier and Efr'n create a set of wine glasses
Deep cups capture the bouquet of fine wine and grace the well-set table
Set includes six glasses

Since the 1990s, Javier Guti'rrez and Efr'n Canteras have worked together to preserve Mexico's blown glass artistry. 'This type of work is a beautiful craft. I love blown glass because of the pure imagination poured into every piece created,' confides Efr'n.

'Even though the art of blowing glass originally came to Mexico from Spain, and it is practiced all over the world, Mexico's blown glass artistry is unique,' says Javier enthusiastically.

hand blown goblets (lipglossgirl, ca, 2008-07-20)

I purchased this set b/c I have been looking for some sturdy Mexican glass goblets. I purchased similar ones at another store, and one broke on the way home in the car! This set is very sturdy, and attractive. The goblets are smaller than I had hoped for-I was looking for red wine type goblets, these are rather small but still quite nice. I wash them by hand, but I think they would be safe in the top shelf of the dishwasher as well.

You can tell they are hand made (rockygirlrx, Halethorpe, MD, 2008-06-02)

The glasses took a few weeks to arrive but when they did I was not disappointed. They are a nice size and a decent weight. You can tell that these glasses are hand made. They are all slightly different in shape and there are tiny bubbles in some of the glass. But, it is these differences that give the glasses character. If you want every glass uniform and perfect do not buy this set!

We love them! (frlss, Illinois, 2008-04-26)

These are great glasses. We purchased them for our newly built bar room. They are clearly handblown, somewhat rustic and very artistic. They are not uniform, as if made from a mold. They are very fun, feel good in your hand, are interesting to look at and fit the atmosphere we wanted for our bar. We love them.
