Hand Blown Wine Glasses from Mexico´s Sublime Artists

Mexican glass blowing began some 500 years ago, and in that time the craft and artistic expertise has reached a stage where today it is recognized worldwide, becoming in many cases collectors items while providing a practical, day to day, service.

Wine glasses come in different shapes and sizes as well as exquisite colors that not only provide a touch of class and good taste, but are decorative in their own right.

Each piece is handmade and this means each shape and size will vary, even if only a bit and tiny bubbles may appear within the glass. This exemplifies the hand-blown technique, making every piece a unique example ofthe blown glass craftsmanship.

    Glad to get this info - I would have never thought of getting blown wine glasses over the more more traditional types. But they really make a more interesting gift - maybe for myself :-)
