Miami Ice Cream Coupe – Orange – Single

What are dessert glasses designed for?

Serving dessert - from ice cream and sorbet to trifle, mousse, or fruit. The shape and capacity are made for scooping and eating with a spoon, not just show.

Can they be used for anything other than dessert?

Yes. They work well for starters too - prawns, dips, or anything served chilled in a small glass dish.

Are they sold individually or as sets?

Individually - so you can build your own collection or mix colours across the range.

The Miami Glassware Collection draws on the expressive colour palettes and relaxed architectural rhythm associated with coastal Florida living. It explores the interplay of bold colour, light, and form - creating pieces that feel playful, modern, and full of character.

Designed and handblown in our London studio, each piece brings together vivid tones and sculptural simplicity, bringing a sense of colour, light, and ease to everyday use and shared moments.

Where is Gather glassware made?

All our handblown glassware is made in our Woolwich studio in South East London. Each piece is individually shaped by hand in small batches.

Who makes Gather glassware?

Gather is led by artist and designer Phoebe Stubbs, alongside a small team of skilled glassblowers with over 20 years of experience working with molten glass.

What does handblown glass mean?

Handblown glass is made by shaping molten glass by hand using traditional tools and techniques, rather than machine manufacturing. Each piece is individually formed, making every item unique.

Is Gather glassware made in the UK?

Yes. All Gather glassware is handmade in our Woolwich studio in South East London.

What type of glass is Gather glassware made from?

We use lead-free crystal glass, which is durable, food-safe, and free from toxic additives.

Is every piece exactly the same?

No. Because each item is handmade, slight variations in shape, size, colour, and pattern are part of the process and make every piece unique.

Why is handmade glassware different from mass-produced glass?

Each piece is individually made by skilled glassblowers using traditional techniques and molten glass. This creates unique objects with natural variation, rather than identical factory-produced items.

Is Gather glassware dishwasher safe?

Yes. Our glassware is dishwasher safe. We recommend using a gentle cycle and placing items on the top rack, especially for coloured glass.

Can I use Gather glassware for hot drinks?

Our glass is annealed for strength but not tempered, so we recommend use for warm to cold drinks only. Avoid sudden temperature changes.

Is your glassware suitable for everyday use?

Yes. Our glassware is designed to be used and enjoyed every day, as well as for entertaining and special occasions.

How durable is handblown glass?

Our glassware is made to be functional and long-lasting. While it should always be handled with care, it is designed for regular everyday use.

Is your packaging eco-friendly?

Yes. We use recyclable cardboard, paper wrapping, and biodegradable protective materials wherever possible to minimise environmental impact.

Is Gather glassware a good gift?

Yes. Handmade glassware makes a thoughtful gift for weddings, anniversaries, housewarmings, birthdays, and special occasions. Each piece is unique and designed to be used and enjoyed.

We also offer gift wrapping to make your order ready to give, as well as gift vouchers if you’d prefer to let the recipient choose their own piece.

Why is handmade glassware more expensive than mass-produced glass?

Each piece is individually made by skilled glassblowers using traditional techniques. The process involves working with molten glass at high temperatures, shaping entirely by hand, and carefully annealing each piece. This results in unique, durable glassware rather than mass-produced items.
