Handblown in our working glassblowing studio in Woolwich, London, each New York Whisky wine glass is shaped through a series of precise hot glass processes that balance clean form with sculptural detail.
The clear bowls are blown into moulds for consistency across the pair, while the stems are built separately using stacked gathers of whisky-coloured molten glass shaped into rounded and faceted forms at the bench. Matching coloured glass feet are then applied beneath each piece to complete the silhouette.
Each glass is made through a collaborative process involving skilled glassmakers, moving between furnace and bench several times while hot to refine the proportions and detail of the stems.
After annealing overnight, the rims are hot-popped, then cold-worked and polished by hand for a smooth finish.
The result is a durable pair of sculptural wine glasses made by hand in our London studio.
